Explanation by: Admin

The motherboard is the main circuit board in a computer that holds the CPU, memory, and other essential chips and connectors.

Other options:

  • (B) the first chip accessed — refers to BIOS or firmware, not the motherboard.
  • (C) same as the CPU chip — motherboard is a board; CPU is a chip on it.
  • (D) circuit board that houses peripheral devices — peripherals connect to the motherboard but are not housed on it.

So, the right answer is: (A).
