20. ______________: Executes all arithmetic and logical operations. Arithmetic calculations like as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
Logical operation like compare numbers, letters, or special characters.

21. ______________: Stores and provides relatively quick access to large amounts of data on an electromagnetically charged surface or set of surfaces.

22. ______________: Provides the basic non-task-specific functions of the computer, and which is used by users to accomplish specific tasks.

23. ______________: Controls and co-ordinates computer components.

24. ______________: Disk drive that uses laser light as part of the process of reading or writing data.
25. ______________: Stores data randomly and the processor accesses these data randomly.

26. ______________: It is designed so that the system unit, input devices, output devices, and any other devices fit entirely on or under a desk or table
Some desktop computers function as a server.
27. ______________: A device that typically allow users to review, and sometimes modify, mages and communicate wirelessly with a computer or
printer, allowing users to print or view images directly from the printer.
