The number of address and data lines of 8085 ____
A
8 and 8
B
16 and 16
C
16 and 8
D
16 and 20
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In 8085 microprocessor, Address bus is of 16 bits (A0-A15) and can transfer maximum 16 bit address and hence can address 65, 536 different memory locations. This bus is multiplexed with 8 bit data bus. So, the most significant bits (MSB) of address goes through Address bus and LSB goes through multiplexed data bus.

Detailed explanation-2: -It is a 16-bit Microprocessor having 20 address lines and16 data lines that provides up to 1MB storage. It consists of powerful instruction set, which provides operations like multiplication and division easily.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Intel 8085 ("eighty-eighty-five") is an 8-bit microprocessor produced by Intel and introduced in March 1976. It is software-binary compatible with the more-famous Intel 8080 with only two minor instructions added to support its added interrupt and serial input/output features.
