(a) Machine
(b) C
(c) C++
(d) Java
(e) HTML
S5. Ans.(a)
Sol. CPU doesn’t understand the C++ language (or any high- level programming language). All the High- level language statements must be translated into machine code before they can be executed.
Q6.Which of the following is the type of software that controls the internal operations in the computer and controls how the computer works with all its parts?
(a) Shareware
(b) Public domain software
(c) Application software
(d) Operating system software
(e) None of these
S6. Ans.(d)
Sol. An operating system (OS) is a program or software that manages and coordinates the functions of all the components of a computer. It also acts as an interface between the user and the hardware of a computer.

(a) RAM
(b) ROM
(c) ALU
(d) Peripherals
(e) None of the above
S7. Ans.(b)
Sol. System BIOS, ROM BIOS or PC BIOS is a type of firmware used to perform hardware initialization during the booting process. BIOS is stored on the ROM chip because it is Non-volatile which means that it doesn’t go away when the power is turned off. In other words, it is effectively permanent (at least until it is reprogrammed).
