Detailed explanation-1: -Multicore processors are much more efficient than the single core processors and have increased clock speed and performance. In case of these types of processors two or more separate processing units are combined or clubbed into a single unit. Hence, the correct option is . Chapter 6, Problem 2MC is solved.
Detailed explanation-2: -CPU can have from a single, two, to 18 cores. Some modern CPUs can have even up to 64 cores. A chip that has a single CPU or processing unit is called a single-core processor. A microprocessor is a single-core processor.
Detailed explanation-3: -Multicore processing can increase performance by running multiple applications concurrently. The decreased distance between cores on an integrated chip enables shorter resource access latency and higher cache speeds when compared to using separate processors or computers.
