Explanation:

1.

A network card is responsible for connecting computers and enabling communication between them.

BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) initializes the computer on startup and provides instructions for basic operations, essentially "waking up" the computer and reminding it what to do.

The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is considered the brain of the computer as it performs most of the processing and calculations, executing instructions and managing tasks.

Answer:

network card
