Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 3 : Network interface Card

 A network interface card (NIC) is a hardware component, typically a circuit board or chip, which is installed on a computer so it can connect to a network. A NIC provides a computer with a dedicated, full-time connection to a network.

Modern NICs provide the functionality to computers such as,

  • support for I/O interrupt,
  • direct memory access (DMA) interfaces,
  • data transmission,
  • network traffic engineering and partitioning.

Hence the correct answer is Network Interface Card.
