Question

Cache memory functions as an intermediary between

• A. RAM and ROM
• B. CPU and RAM
• C. CPU and Hard Disk
• D. None of these

Hint:

Cache memory improves CPU performance by reducing the time needed to access data from RAM.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Cache memory is a small, fast memory located near the CPU. It acts as an intermediary between the CPU and the main memory (RAM) to speed up data access by storing frequently accessed data. 
Understand the function of cache memory.
Cache memory stores copies of frequently accessed data from RAM to speed up the CPU’s access to data. When the CPU needs data, it first checks the cache, and if the data is not found, it fetches it from RAM. Thus, the correct answer is: \[ \boxed{{CPU and RAM}}. \]
