What is the maximum amount of information bits that can be stored in a single flip-flop?

A flip-flop is a basic memory element in digital electronics that can store one bit of information. It operates in a binary manner, meaning it can hold either a 0 or a 1 at any given time. The simplicity of its design enables it to change its state based on input signals, allowing it to maintain one of two possible states.

Since a flip-flop's function is explicitly to store a single binary digit, the maximum amount of information bits that can be stored in a single flip-flop is exactly one. Other options suggesting larger quantities of bits are incorrect because they exceed the fundamental capacity of a flip-flop to represent only two distinct states.
