Dictionary: expansion - noun The act or process of expanding

In this case you are expanding the capability of your motherboard. Though you didn't mention what type of expansion slot. ISA, PCI, PCI-E or AGP? These ports allow you to add more graphics cards, extra communication ports, network ports, flash memory boards, extra sata/scsi/ide controllers.
