   उत्तर: (4) बस

   A bus is a set of parallel lines (wires) that carries signals between the CPU, memory and input/output devices; the system bus is made up of a data bus, an address bus and a control bus. A hub and a router are networking devices and a port is a connection point, not internal wiring.
