    • Internet Server Provider

    • Web Browser

    • Phone Line or Modem

    • DSL

    Correct Answer
    A. Internet Server Provider
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Internet Server Provider. An Internet Service Provider (ISP) is a company that provides internet access to customers. They offer different types of internet connections, such as DSL, cable, or fiber optic, allowing users to connect to the internet. The comparison to a phone company is made because both provide essential communication services, with an ISP enabling access to the internet while a phone company provides access to telephone services.

    • ISDN

    Correct Answer
    A. DSL
    Explanation
    DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) is an Internet connection that still uses the phone line but utilizes digital signals instead of analog signals. This technology allows for faster and more reliable internet speeds compared to traditional dial-up connections. DSL is able to transmit data over existing telephone lines by utilizing different frequencies for voice and data signals. This enables users to access the internet while still being able to use their phone line for voice calls. DSL is a popular choice for residential and small business users who require a faster and more stable internet connection than dial-up.

    • Digital Subscriber Line(DSL)

    • Broadband

    • Integrated Service Digital Network(ISDN)

    • Dial-up

    Correct Answer
    A. Dial-up
    Explanation
    Dial-up is the correct answer because it refers to an internet connection that requires the user to dial-up or call the ISP server before they can connect to the internet. This type of connection was common in the early days of the internet and involved using a modem to establish a connection through a telephone line. Dial-up connections are slower compared to broadband connections like DSL and ISDN, which provide faster and more reliable internet access.

    Correct Answer
    A. Broadband
    Explanation
    Broadband is the correct answer because it refers to an internet connection that does not rely on phone lines. Unlike dial-up and DSL, which use phone lines to establish a connection, broadband utilizes a different technology, such as cable or fiber optic lines, to provide high-speed internet access. Wireless connection, on the other hand, refers to a type of broadband connection that uses radio waves to transmit data without the need for physical cables.
