Best Answer

In a computer, you have a central processing unit, you have memory, you have connections, you have a monitor, and you need a way to get data from one to the other. The thing on your computer that does that job is called a bus. It takes the data in the computer memory and brings it to the CPU or monitor or printer or wherever. (I have no idea why it is called a bus and not a truck!)
