Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is Bandwidth. Bandwidth is the measurement of the amount of data that can be transmitted over a network at any given time.

Detailed explanation-2: -Network bandwidth is commonly measured in bits per second (bps). In practice, organizations and internet service providers (ISPs) measure bandwidth in megabits per second (Mbps) or gigabits per second (Gbps).

Detailed explanation-3: -Megabits per second (Mbps) are units of measurement for network bandwidth and throughput. They are used to show how fast a network or internet connection is. Each Mbps represents the capacity to transfer 1 million bits each second, or roughly one small photo per second.
