Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A family of processors most often used in smartphones due to its lower power requirements.
A
Advanced RISC Machines (ARM) processors
B
x86 processors
C
Water cooling
D
Immersion cooling
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Arm processors are used extensively in consumer electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, wearables and other mobile devices. They’re also used in a wide range of sensors and internet of things devices.

Detailed explanation-2: -ARM (stylised in lowercase as arm, formerly an acronym for Advanced RISC Machines and originally Acorn RISC Machine) is a family of reduced instruction set computer (RISC) instruction set architectures for computer processors, configured for various environments.

Detailed explanation-3: -So, in terms of raw performance, ARM processors are still in the lead. But with SiFive’s P670 providing twice the compute density over the Cortex-A78, RISC-V processors seem to have an advantage over ARM processors regarding wearable technologies which greatly benefit from using smaller-sized processors.
