Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A CPU is traditionally made up of a processor with a single core. Most modern CPUs have two hundred, four hundred or even more cores however.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A CPU that offers multiple cores may perform significantly better than a single-core CPU of the same speed. Multiple cores allow PCs to run multiple processes at the same time with greater ease, increasing your performance when multitasking or under the demands of powerful apps and programs.

Detailed explanation-2: -CPU manufacturing Processors are built on silicon wafers, which are thin slices of extremely pure silicon. As it’s circuit components are extremely small (in the order of hundreds of atoms), a single atom in the wrong place can ruin an entire chip.

Detailed explanation-3: -A multicore processor is an integrated circuit that has two or more processor cores attached for enhanced performance and reduced power consumption.

Detailed explanation-4: -A CPU can have multiple cores. A processor with two cores is called a dual-core processor; with four cores, a quad-core; six cores, hexa-core; eight cores, octa-core. As of 2019, most consumer CPUs feature between two and twelve cores. Workstation and server CPUs may feature as many as 48 cores.
