Attempted by 2815 students.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: Gbps (gigabits per second).
Why this is correct: Internet connection speed measures how much data can be transferred per second, and is expressed in bits per second.
Common units: kilobits per second (kbps), megabits per second (Mbps), gigabits per second (Gbps).
Example: 100 Mbps means 100 megabits transferred each second; 1 Gbps means 1 gigabit per second.
Why the other choices are incorrect:
GHz (gigahertz) measures frequency (cycles per second), not data transfer rate.
DPI (dots per inch) measures image or print resolution and does not describe network speed.
PPM (pages per minute) refers to printing speed, not digital data transfer.
