right??

Answer / santosh

Processor may be executing other task(high priority) or in
Idle state or in power saving mode in case device is
operating from battery.

Answer / senthil

Sorry, the answer is
Blocked state

Answer / tejas gawade

processor will enter in "idle loop" in which "sleep"
instruction will be executed to move processor to sleeping
i.e. power saving mode.
In this state processor can accept interrupts and come out
of sleeping state.
So actually processor "do nothing" in this situation.
