34. The register, which contains the data to be written into or readout of the addressed location is known as memory data register.
35. A collection of wires that connects several devices is called cable.
36. The register which holds the address of the location to or from which data are to be transferred is known as memory address register.
37. The ALU of a computer normally contains a number of high-speed storage elements called registers.

43. Instruction register is loaded with the contents of the memory location pointed by the PC.
44. Program counter is used to keep track of address of the memory location where the next instruction is located.
45. EPROM chips are erasable by ultra-violet rays after removing them from the main circuit.
46. ROM is non-volatile and may be written only once.
47. ROM is programmed at the time it is manufactured.
48. Magnetic tape is non-volatile.

57. Each time you turn the power switch on which control files the computer will check command.com, IO.sys and MSDOS.sys
58. While working with MS-DOS, diskcopy command would be used to duplicate the entire diskette.
59. Bak filename extension suggests that the file is backup copy of another file.
60. Dir command will be used to view the contents of the directory of the current disk drive.
61. Dir/w command will be used to display only the file names and extensions in wide format.
62. Dir/b command will be used to display file and directory names only without size date and time information.
63. Dir/c command will be used to display column file compression ratios for each file of double spaced disk.
64. Dir/ch command will be used to display the compression ratio of double space files on the basis of the cluster size of the current drive.
65. Dir\pathname\pathname command will be used to display all files within the specified subordinate directory of the subdirectory.
66. Dir\pathname\filename command will be used to display a file within the specified directory or pathname.
67. MD or MKDIR command in used to create a directory or subdirectory.
68. CD or CHDIR command in used to display the name of the current directory or change from one directory to another.
69. RD command is used to delete the directory that is empty.
70. Deltree command is used to delete the directory and all its contents in one step.
71. Del*.*/p command is used to asks you to confirm that you want to delete the directory.
72. Tree|more command is used to display the subdirectory structure of the currently logged drive and pause the screen display after each scornful of the information.
73. Path command is used to provide access to files located in other directories or disks.
