Which of the following is used as storage locations both in the ALU and the control section of a computer?

A accumulator
B register
C adder
D decoder
E None of the above

Correct Answer: register

Most of the operations of a CPU are performed by one or more ALUs, which load data from input registers. A register is a small amount of storage available as part of a CPU. The control unit tells the ALU what operation to perform on that data and the ALU stores the result in an output register.
