Question

a container that stores information for later use
cpu
microsoft word
variable
def

Explanation:

We analyze each option:

• CPU is the central processing unit, which processes data, not store for later use.
• Microsoft Word is a word - processing software, not a storage container for information in the relevant sense.
• A variable in programming (and in computer science concepts) is a container that stores information (like values, data) for later use in a program or calculation.
• "Def" is not a standard term for a storage container of information in this context. So the correct option is the one with "Variable".

Answer:

The green - colored option with "Variable" (the bottom - left option in the given layout)
