2. Base (0-15, 32-39 and 56-63 bits) defines the physical address of the segment's start address.
3. Type (40-47 bits) defines the type of segment and kinds of access to it. Next `S` flag specifies descriptor type. if `S` is 0 - this segment is a system segment, if `S` is 1 - code or data segment (Stack segments are data segments which must be read/write segments). If the segment is a code or data segment, it can be one of the following access types:
