A. Input storage area
B. Program storage area
C. Output storage area
D. Working storage space
Check Answer
The correct answer is D) Working storage space.
Working storage space, also known as working memory or RAM (Random Access Memory), is an area of primary storage in a computer where intermediate processing results are held temporarily. This is where data and instructions are loaded from the secondary storage (such as a hard drive) to be processed by the CPU. The results of intermediate processing are held in working storage space temporarily until they are needed for further processing or output. The other options listed – input storage area, program storage area, and output storage area – do not refer to areas of primary storage where intermediate processing results are held temporarily.
