Quizplus · Accepted Answer

General-purpose registers are used only by the currently executing program and can hold any data that is needed by the program. They are not predefined for any particular purpose, unlike reserved or kernel registers. Instruction registers hold the currently executing instruction and are not accessible for general use. Reserved registers are set aside for specific purposes and are not available for general use. Kernel registers are used by the operating system kernel and are not accessible for general use.
