Diagram for USCG Electrical Assistant: As shown in all four diagrams included in the illustration, what type of logic...
ANOT gate
BOR gate
CNOR gate
DXOR gate
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) XOR gate. The four diagrams in the illustration EL-0231 represent an XOR (exclusive OR) logic gate, which produces a HIGH (1) output when either, but not both, of the two inputs are HIGH (1). This logic operation is a fundamental component in various electronic circuits and digital systems. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) A NOT gate produces the inverse of a single input, whereas the XOR gate has two inputs. B) An OR gate produces a HIGH output when one or both inputs are HIGH, which is different from the XOR gate's behavior. C) A NOR gate produces a HIGH output when both inputs are LOW, which is also different from the XOR gate's operation.
