Q2. What is the primary function of the Control
Unit in a CPU?

a) Performing arithmetic operations

b) Storing instructions

c) Controlling data flow

d) Executing instructions
Control Unit (CU) CPU ka wo part hota hai jo processor ki activities ko control karta
hai. Iska primary kaam data flow ko manage karna hota hai, yani ki yeh decide karta
hai ki data kahan se kahan jana hai, kis tarah se instructions ko execute karna hai, aur
kis part ko kis time pe kaam karna hai.

•a) Performing arithmetic operations — Yeh kaam Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) ka hota
hai, na ki Control Unit ka.

•b) Storing instructions — Instructions ko Memory store karti hai, Control Unit nahi.

•c) Controlling data flow — Yeh bilkul sahi hai. Control Unit data ko correctly flow
karne ke liye control signals bhejta hai.

•d) Executing instructions — Yeh kaam ALU aur other parts of CPU karte hain, lekin
Control Unit instructions ko interpret karta hai aur unko execute karne ka signal deta
hai.

Toh, Control Unit ka kaam data flow ko control karna hai.
