Detailed explanation-1: -Disadvantages of Ring Topology: Network Crash: An issue in a single node can lead to the crash of the whole network. Slow Data Transfer: This is due to the unidirectional movement of the data, data transmission is slow in the network.
Detailed explanation-2: -A single computer failure can disrupt the entire network. As a result, bus and ring topologies have difficulties, such as the possibility of the entire network being deactivated if one connection fails. Hence the correct answer is Bus and Ring Topology.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ring Topology: If a connection fails, then the entire network will be affected, and communication between all devices will stop. In a ring topology, data travels in one direction only. Therefore, if a connection fails, data cannot travel through alternative paths, and communication will stop.
