In the fetch phase, the memory address register (MAR) holds the of the instruction to be fetched.

4. The Fetch-Decode-Execute Cycle is also known as the FDE cycle or the .

During the execute phase, the results of the ALU operations are stored in the .

During the fetch-execute cycle, the first step is to the next instruction from memory.

In the fetch phase, the program counter is incremented to point to the instruction.

7. The Fetch-Decode-Execute Cycle forms the basis for how a executes instructions.
