I asked this question today needing input. Some thought I was right. Just
needing someone else to give their advice.
A __________ is an integral part of the computer hardware,which connects the processor to the hardware.
1 hard drive
2 CPU
3 byte
4 motherboard
I am thinking the correct answer is the motherboard. Am I right?

Hmmm.

I'm torn between 2 and 4.

I've asked other teachers to chime in on this question.

Motherboard connects the processor to all peripherals
So, I am right? Is the motherboard the
right answer?
Please re-read Bobpursley's answer. It's very clear!

And just to clarify why it is not #2, the CPU *IS* the processor.
Yes, you are correct! The motherboard is indeed the integral part of the computer hardware that connects the processor to the hardware. The CPU (central processing unit) is the actual processor itself, so choosing option 2 would not be correct. The motherboard is responsible for connecting all the various components of the computer, including the CPU, to ensure they work together. So, option 4, motherboard, is the correct answer in this case.
To find the answer to this question, you can use various methods. One method is to directly search for the question or keywords related to it on a search engine like Google. By entering the question "What connects the processor to the hardware in a computer?" or relevant keywords like "computer hardware components," you can find resources that explain the role of the motherboard.
Another strategy is to consult reliable sources or experts in the field. Asking teachers or discussing with peers who have knowledge in computer hardware can provide valuable insights and help you reach the correct answer.
It's always helpful to consider multiple perspectives and gather different opinions to ensure accuracy.
