Hybrid processors, that can process 32 bits or 64 bits are known by what term?

A. Dual Mode processor

B. X- 86 processor

C. X-86-64 processor

D. Itanium Processor

A

Answer: C. X-86-64 processor

X-86-64 is a 64- bit version of the X-86 processor. By default, CPUs using the X-86-64 architecture operate in 64-bit mode. They can as well be backward-compatible with 16-bit and 32-bit applications. The X-86-64 architecture supports larger amounts of physical and virtual memory than all of its predecessors.
