Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Available storage space
(Available storage space) is correct because applications require a minimum amount of free disk space to install and run. Option D (Amount of RAM) is correct because insufficient memory can prevent installation or cause poor performance. Option E (Monitor refresh rate) is irrelevant to application installation. Option B (CPU clock speed) is important but not as commonly checked as RAM and storage for typical applications; however, the question asks for TWO components, and storage and RAM are the most fundamental. Option C (Number of USB ports) is unrelated.
