Explanation
The Level 1 (L1) cache is implemented on microprocessors. The L1 cache is a type of memory implemented inside the microprocessor chip. It is the fastest memory in the computer. It contains the current working set of data and code. Cache memory is used to store frequently used information, so that the processor can access this information without delay. Level 2 (L2) cache is employed between main memory and L1 cache. The L2 cache contains additional data and code. In old architecture, L2 cache is mounted on the motherboard, which means that it runs at the motherboard's speed. In modern architecture, L2 caches are built directly into the Answer options C and A are incorrect. There are no such cache levels as level 0 and level 5.
