The question presents a fill-in-the-blank statement about computer components and then asks you to choose the word that completes it.
Option 1: Architect. This word refers to someone who designs systems or buildings, not the physical components of a computer. It does not fit the context of the sentence, so it is incorrect here.
Option 2: Enterprise. This term generally denotes a business organization or an initiative within a company. It is not used to describe the physical components of a computer system, making it an unsuitable choice for the blank.
Option 3: Infrastructure. While this word can describe the underlying framework of a system (often including hardware and software at a high level), in this exact sentence it would ornate the idea rather than pinpoint the specific physical devices. The phrase “the hardware executes” next would be awkward if the blank were infrastructure, so it does not align with the standard terminology used in the statement.
Option 4: Hardware. This term specifically means the physical devices that constitute a computer system. The rest of the sentence correctly states that software is the set of instructions the hardware executes to carry out tasks, which is the conventional definition. This option directly matches the widely accepted distinction between hardware and software.
In summary, the other options do not describe the physical components of a computer system, whereas hardware precisely fulfills that definition and aligns with the subsequent description of software operating on the hardware.

Blank ______ consists of the physical devices associated with a computer system, and software is the set of instructions the hardware executes to carry out specific tasks.
