Answer 1

The correct answer is Second.

Key Points

Second-generation computers (1955-1964) were made of transistors.
The second generation of computers, which used transistors instead of vacuum tubes, were released in the late 1950s and early 1960s as interest in computer technology grew quickly.
The second generation of computers, however, was entirely built using transistors rather than vacuum tubes.
