Answer : 2. "switching hub"
Explanation :

A switching hub, also known as a network switch, is designed to send packets using package addresses. A network switch operates at the data link layer of the OSI model and uses MAC addresses to forward data frames to specific devices within a local area network (LAN). Unlike a hub, which simply broadcasts data to all devices in the network, a switch intelligently forwards packets only to the device intended to receive the data, increasing network efficiency and reducing unnecessary network traffic.

Answer : 2. "It is a computer program"
Explanation :

a virus that spreads in a computer is a type of malicious computer program. Computer viruses are software programs designed to replicate themselves and spread from one computer to another. They can attach themselves to legitimate programs or documents, and when the infected program or document is executed, the virus activates and starts spreading to other files and systems. Viruses can cause various harmful effects, such as corrupting or deleting files, stealing sensitive information, or disrupting computer operations. Antivirus software and best practices, such as avoiding suspicious downloads and email attachments, are used to protect computers from these malicious programs.
