how is a microprocessor different from an integrated circuit?\na. microprocessors are the size of your thumb and integrated circuits are the size of your hand.\nb. microprocessors are faster, smaller and less expensive than integrated circuits.\nc. microprocessors control the flow of electrons and integrated circuits control the flow of protons.\nd. microprocessors include tape and disk storage whereas integrated circuits are part of an operating system.

Answer

Brief Explanations:

An integrated - circuit is a set of electronic circuits on one small flat piece of semiconductor material. A microprocessor is a type of integrated circuit that is the brain of a computer, handling most processing tasks. It is not about size (A is wrong), not about cost - speed comparison in a simple way (B is wrong), integrated circuits don't control proton flow (C is wrong). Microprocessors don't include tape and disk storage and integrated circuits are not part of an operating system in that sense. But conceptually, a microprocessor is a specialized type of integrated circuit focused on processing.

Answer:

None of the above options are correct.
