Correct answer: B
Answer: 1 (constant HIGH output)
1. The top gate computes 1 Ꚛ X, which simplifies to X'.
2. The right gate computes X' Ꚛ X.
3. Since X and X' are complementary by definition, one input will always be 1 and the other will always be 0. An XOR gate outputs 1 whenever its inputs differ.
