The microprocessor used in the first home computer was the 8080. It could handle 8 bits at a time.
The first microprocessor to make it into a home computer was the Intel 4004. This chip could process 4 bits at one time. -Harry Dingleberry

The DEC PDP-8 is a 12 bit computer. A 12 bit computer is one where the accumulator and/or bus size is 12 bits.

It can process 8 bit data simultaneously ... In pcs we use 64 k bit which means it can process 64 bits of data at a time :)
The Altair 8800 is the first microprocessor that I know of that was marketed as a computer. Many other early versions included: Imsai 8080 Franklin Osborn Exidy Commadore Pet The first microprocessor was the Intel 4004, the first computer it was sold in was a development system that Intel called the MCS-4, which stood for MicroComputer System - 4 bits. They also had an MCS-8 about the same time for their 8008 microprocessor.
As quoted from Google Books, "Word size refers to the number of bits that a microprocessor can manipulate at one time."
It is depended on how many bits the processor can process simultaneous... Means 8 bit microprocessor can process 8 bit of data simultaneously... & also it has 8 line data bus.. to transfer the data between memory & IO devices.... In same way for 64 bit..
The 8085 is an 8-bit microprocessor. Even though there are some 16-bit registers (BC, DE, HL, SP, PC), with some 16-bit operations that can be performed on them, and a 16-bit address bus, the accumulator (A), the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), and the data bus are 8-bits in size, making the 8085 an 8-bit computer.
queue of 8086 microprocessor is 6 bits
Bits and bytes are processed into binary code (0 & 1) and are sent to the processor to be processed (hence the name) into the computer's motherboard and is sent to wherever it needs to go.
I'm not sure What you mean exactly ? Another name for the Microprocessor? That is known as (CPU) Which is the heart of a Computer. Which Controls Logic, and Control Operations, Reads, Writes, Executes Bits Bytes Data, and is the Primary Control for Processing Data (Centeral Processing Unit) MicroProcessor,''Single circuit Chip''
