Correct answer: C
The first generation of computers was based on vacuum tubes. Used between the 1940s and 1950s, these large glass tubes controlled electrical current flow. Computers like ENIAC and UNIVAC relied on them, making them massive in size, highly power-consuming, and prone to frequent overheating.
