1.1.1. B Social media is an application or platform that utilizes digital technology, rather than a fundamental benefit of using digital technology itself, such as increased communication speed, improved banking and finance, or efficient information storage. 1.1.2. C Information processing primarily involves the acquisition, manipulation, storage, and dissemination of data to create information. Breaking down complex problems into smaller units (option C) is a problem-solving strategy, not the definition of information processing itself. 1.1.3. A Data mining is the process of discovering patterns, trends, and insights from large datasets, which is commonly used by large retailers to understand customer behavior and market trends. 1.1.4. C RAM (Random Access Memory) is the computer component responsible for temporal memory, meaning it temporarily stores data that the CPU is actively using. It is volatile, so its contents are lost when the power is turned off. 1.1.5. D At their most fundamental level, computers process all forms of data (text, images, sound, etc.) by representing them as numbers (specifically, binary digits or bits).
