The correct answer is
one bit

Memory Cells Store One Bit

Computer memory is fundamentally built using memory cells. Each individual cell is designed to hold the smallest possible unit of digital information.

This smallest unit is a single binary digit, represented as either a 0 or a 1. This single binary digit is precisely what is defined as a bit.

  • A bit is the basic unit of information in computing.
  • Memory cells are the physical components that store these bits.

Therefore, each memory cell is capable of storing one bit of information in the form of binary numbers.
