Correct answer: C

In a distributed system, each processor works independently and therefore must have: Its own local memory

Its own clock

Important Concept (English) In a distributed system , multiple processors (nodes) work independently and communicate through a network. Each processor must have its own local memory because there is no shared global memory. Each processor also has its own clock , as there is no single global clock controlling all processors. Because of different clocks, clock synchronization becomes an important issue in distributed systems.
