A
Assembly
B
Machine
C
4GL
D
High Level
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Machine language gives instructions as 0’s and 1’s and is the only language that the computer understands. Assembly language is more concise but still very cumbersome when programming. A high-level language such as FORTRAN or C facilitates easy programming.

Detailed explanation-2: -That language of 1’s and 0’s is called binary. Computers speak in binary because of how they are built.

Detailed explanation-3: -1. Binary is a base-2 number system invented by Gottfried Leibniz that’s made up of only two numbers or digits: 0 (zero) and 1 (one). This numbering system is the basis for all binary code, which writes digital data such as the computer processor instructions used with your devices every day.

Detailed explanation-4: -The only language that the computer can process or execute is called machine language. It consists of only 0s and 1s in binary, that a computer can understand. In short, the computer only understands binary code, i.e 0s and 1s.

Detailed explanation-5: -Machine code, also known as machine language, is the elemental language of computers. It is read by the computer’s central processing unit (CPU), is composed of digital binary numbers and looks like a very long sequence of zeros and ones.
