Explanation

CPU speed (clock speed) is measured in Hertz (Hz), specifically megahertz (MHz) or gigahertz (GHz). It represents how many cycles per second the processor can execute. MB (B) is a unit of data storage (megabytes). Mbps (C) measures data transfer speed in megabits per second, used for network or storage throughput. MAC (D) is a hardware address used for network interface identification-not a unit of measurement.
