Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -What happens if a host goes down in a star topology? A token ring topology? The downed host will not have a connection to the central hub, but all other devices can connect. The data will instead work downstream up to the break.
Detailed explanation-2: -If one node fails along the bus, it does not bring down the entire network. However, if a line break occurs on the network, the entire network will go down. Bus network lines have a limited physical distance and a limited number of allowed nodes before system usability decreases significantly.
