What exactly does the CPU "ask" of it's Caches and the systems RAM?

I dont understand the question.  Can you elaborate on what it is you are trying to find out  and / or why?

I know that whenever you try to a complete a process that your processor works to find what I believe to be "information" from it's caches and it's ram so it can complete the process. Is this true?

The TL:DR version of the answer is: "Yes".

The more technically correct answer is far far longer and has to do with control registers, code path optimisation, prefetch and lots of other stuff.     If the above is all you wanted to know then you got it.   If you want to know more, ask away.

First and foremost, merry Christmas, and thanks for the reply. Is the information your computer looking for all in binary code? and it is permanently stored in caches and RAM, or does it somehow cycle?
