Step-by-step explanation:

The form, design, and implementation of CPUs have replaced over the track of their past, but their primary process continues almost constant. Principal parts of a CPU involve the arithmetic logic unit (ALU) that executes arithmetic and logic operations, processor registers that provide operands to the ALU and save the results of ALU operations and a control unit that organizes the fetching and performance of directions by directing the coordinated operations of the ALU, registers and other elements.
