Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Machine dependent
1. Low level languages include machine language and assembly language.
2. They are machine dependent, so code written for one type of CPU will not run on another.
3. High level languages are machine independent and simpler to write code into.
4. High level code uses English-like sentences, which is the opposite of option D.
5. Finding errors in machine language is difficult, so option B is also wrong.
