Computer Studies Logic Gates & Boolean Algebra

Which of the following best describes why universal gates are widely used in integrated circuits?

A They consume less electricity than other gates

B They can recreate any other gate reducing the variety of components needed in manufacturing

C They produce faster outputs than AND and OR gates

D They are the only gates that support 3-input operations

Explanation

Universal gates (NAND and NOR) are widely used in integrated circuits because any digital circuit can be built using only one type of gate reducing the complexity and variety of components needed.
