All user input is processed by the CPU once every cycle. The CPU does everything in its power to perform more than one instruction per cycle. The higher the cycle number, the more often a processor can process.

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement being made is true. The CPU cycle is also known as the clock speed of the CPU because every cycle represents one instruction that was completely finished by the CPU. The higher the clock speed the more instructions that can be completed in a certain amount of time. The second feature that also drastically increases the number of instructions that can be processed in a certain amount of time is whether or not the CPU has multi-thread functionality. This is a feature in some CPU's that allow the CPU to perform more than one process at the same time, this can be 4, 8 , or 16 processes at a time depending on the CPU.
