Because register is used for temporary storage od data.

Register is a permanent storage but buffer is a temporary storage device.

Register is made of flip-flop units which are capable of storing one bit of data at a time. Hence, register can be considered a storage device. Buffer, on the other hand, can be used to delay data propagation in order to synchronize various data handling components.

Counters, on other hand, are used to generate(multiply or divide) clock frequencies while inverters are simply NOT gates.

PLD (programm logic device) will also store the information. Why that option is not there?

@manoj.

There are many device or logic circuit are to store information but we have choose which option is in mentioned in above.

Buffer is used for power amplification.

Both the register and buffer are memory devices but register is located in CPU holds small amount of data where as buffer is an area of RAM designed to store data in advance.

Simply we can say that buffer is to hold the data (i.e it doesn't store the data) but register made of flip flop can store data.

We can say the content present in buffer is not stored and so it will get automatically deleted because it makes delay in the propagation of data which seems to be saved, but it is not actually stored in buffer.
