In order for a computer to be accessible over a computer network, the computer needs its own

a) MODEM
b) Communication line
c) Network address
d) Packet
e) Router

Answer:  c.

Explanation:  In order to differentiate between the computers on a network, each is given its own, unique, network address.  In this way, a message intended for one computer can be recognized by that computer through the message’s destination address.  A MODEM is a device that is used to allow a computer to communicate to another computer over a telephone line.  A communication line is the network media itself.  A packet is a collection of data that is sent over a network.  A router is a hardware device used to take a message from one network and move it to another based on the message’s destination address.
