Answer:

a. fetch

Step-by-step explanation:

The device collects a program command from its memory during the run cycle of the fetch.

It then defines and performs the activities needed for that command. The CPU continuously repeats the cycle of fetching, decoding, and executing a command while the computer is switched on.
