Please help me in these following questions:
1/ A data hazard is when a __________ .
a. previous instruction must complete its read or write
b. required resource is busy
c. branch depends on a previous result
d. cache miss occurs

3/ The ALU does not calculate which of the following statements?
a. A selection of which register to read or write from
b. An arithmetic result
c. A memory address for load/store
d. A branch target address
4/ In the CPU datapath multiple signals need to be combined to an output using a __________ .
