Correct answer: A

A byte is a unit of digital information that typically consists of 8 bits. A bit is the smallest unit of data in computing, representing a binary value of 0 or 1. In most computer systems, a byte is defined as 8 bits, which allows it to represent 256 different values (from 0 to 255). This standardization makes it easier to process and store data efficiently.
