onsider the following $2$ bitpatterns:

$1)10110110$ and $2)11011101$

$3)$ The result after an XOR operation has been performed on $1)$ and $2)$

$4)$ The result after two left$-$shifts have been done on $2)$

$5)$ The result after an AND operation has been performed on the results in $3)$ and $4)$

The final result is:

a$.$

$01100000$

b$.$

$01000000$

c$.$

$01110100$

d$.$
