CompTIA Security+ Exam Prep

Answer: B - When a computer is out of synch and the code is being interpreted incorrectly, the origin is in the control unit. The control unit manages and synchronizes the system while different applications’ codes and operating system instructions are being executed. The control unit is the component that fetches the code, interprets the code, and oversees the execution of the different instruction sets. It determines what application instructions get processed and in what priority and time slice. It also controls when instructions are executed and this execution enables application to process data without actually processing data.
