What would happen if computers only had input peripherals and a cpu?  

a. computers would process and display data.

b. computers would receive signals and display data.

c. computers would receive signals and process data.

d. computers would receive signals, process, and print data.

The correct answer is option C.

c. computers would receive signals and process data

Explanation:

EXPLANATION

a. computers would process and display data.

This option is wrong. The computer can process that since it has a CPU. From the question, we were told that the computer has not output peripherals and to display data that has been processed by the computer, you will need an output peripheral like a monitor.

b. computers would receive signals and display data.

This option is wrong. The computer can receive signal quite alright since it has input peripherals but it cannot display the data as it does not have an output peripheral e.g a monitor

c. computers would receive signals and process data

This is the correct answer. The computer will be able to receive a signal as it has input peripherals and can process the data received because it has a CPU. But it cannot print or display the results or information as it does not have an output peripheral

d. computers would receive signals, process, and print data.

This option is also wrong. The computer can receive signals because it has input peripherals, it can process the signal received because it has a CPU, but it cannot print the data out. To print out the data, a printer is required, and printers are output peripheral. The computer does not have an output peripheral so it cannot print
