B Correct answer
Explanation

The ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) contains high-speed storage elements called registers, which hold data temporarily during processing. Registers are the fastest memory in a computer, directly accessible by the ALU for arithmetic and logical operations. They store operands, intermediate results, and final results of computations.
