Intel chips use the LITTLE ENDIAN convention. Data transfer between RAM and CPU registers attaches the LOW byte of RAM to the LOW 8 bits of a register. Please refer to the Instruction Set of Intel 8086.
In all of these assignments you are given that bytes in memory starting at address 200 are

Adress : 200, 201, 202, 203, 204, 205, 206, 207, 208, 209, 20A, 20B..

             MOV  AX, [BX]   
             MOV  CX, [BX + 1]
             CMP  AX, CX
