The _____ in a star topology is responsible for receiving and forwarding the packets to the other devices on the network.
A) hub
B) NIC
C) resource indicator capacitor (RIC)
D) resister

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a star topology, all devices are connected to a central hub, which is responsible for receiving and forwarding packets to the other devices on the network. Therefore, the correct choice is A - hub. NIC (B) is a Network Interface Card that allows a device to connect to a network, but it is not responsible for forwarding packets in a star topology. RIC (C) and resistor (D) are not relevant to network topologies.
