Answer:

b. False

In a single-cycle architecture (SCA), each instruction takes the same fixed amount of time to execute. This means that regardless of the complexity or type of instruction, they are all allocated the same clock cycle for execution. This results in a simplified and predictable design but can lead to inefficiencies when dealing with complex instructions that require more time to complete.
