No.

A network adapter is usually a card that slots into your computer allowing it to access some kind of network, wired or wireless.

A wireless router is a separate device that connects wireless clients (your computer) to some kind of network (usually the internet).

No, it's not. Wireless modes works as a modem as well as wireless router (server). When a wireless adapter can work as a client only (unless you find a way to make your computer a router). Of course, there is some difference in size as well.

No; a USB adaptor is a rather loose term - you can get USB adaptors to connect to networks (both wireless and wired); it means something that adapts USB so that it can be used for something else - I said it was a loose term!

A wireless card is a computer card that connects to a wireless network (usually Wi-fi is what's meant by wireless in this context).

The difference between a network adapter and a wireless adapter is that a network adapter lets you route several computers to an internet connection through a "hard line" and a wireless adapter lets you route several computers to a wireless router wirelessly through the same internet connection.

It can be a sort of network adapter but it has to support "Bridge". Using such settings it can work with incoming connections coming from the main router.

A single malfunctioning cable or workstation can disable star networks?

The answes is no. As in a star topology network all the Workstations are connected to every other workstation in the network. If there are 'n' workstations then each must have 'n-1' links. Hence if a link or a workstation stops functioning then the network won't get disabled. Only that link or workstation will stop functioning and rest of the netword will continue in normal order.

What is an exclusive provider organization of an HMO?

An Exclusive Provider Oraganization (EPO) is a network of individual medical care providers, or groups of medical care providers, who have entered into written agreements with an insurer to provide health insurance to subscribers. In EPO, medical care providers enter a mutually beneficial relationship with an insurer. The insurer reimburses an insured subscriber only if the medical expenses are derived form the designated netword of medcal care providers. The established network of medical care providers in turn provide subscribed patients medical services at significantly lower rates than what would have been under normal circumstances. In exchange for reduced rates of medical services, medical are providers get a steady stream of business. An EPO earns additional money by charging an access fee ot the insurer for use of the network. It also negotiates with the medical care providers of the organization in order to set fee schedules and help resolve altercations between the insurer and medical care providers. Sometimes EPOs even contact with one another to strengthen their businesses and positions in a certain geographic area. The beneficial relationship between medical care providers and the insurer often rubs off of the insured subscriber because lower rates of medical services means lower rates of increase in monthly premiums. Although a good deal, The downside of EPO is that it can be quite restrictive. As a member of an EPO< you can use the doctors and hospitals within the EPO network, but cannot go outside of the network for care. Suppose you go to a hospital outside of te network in the case of an emergency, you may have to pay your medical bills partially or completely out of the pocket.
