Solution

The data structure used to perform recursion is Stack.

Here's why:

  1. Recursion involves a function calling itself while some condition is met.

  2. Each time a recursive call is made, the computer must "remember" the previous state of the function.

  3. This is done by pushing the current state of the function (including the values of its variables, the place in the code where the call was made, etc.) onto a stack.

  4. When the recursive call returns, the computer "pops" the state off the top of the stack and resumes execution at that point.

  5. Therefore, the stack is the data structure that makes this possible.

So, the answer is Stack.
