Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
PARALLEL transmission is ____
A
more wires to send more data at the same time
B
one bit of data sent at a time
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Parallel transmission : data bits are sent over multiple wires at the same time. It is faster but only works well over a short distance such as several meters. Buses inside a computer use parallel transmision.

Detailed explanation-2: -All data is sent in unison in parallel communication and uses a one wire or lane per bit.

Detailed explanation-3: -Parallel Transmission: In this transmission, data bits are transmitted simultaneously through multiple links, which are placed parallel to each other. Contrary to serial transmission where only one bit is transmitted at a time, eight bits of data can be transmitted simultaneously in parallel transmission.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Parallel data transmission mode is a mode in which the data bits are sent parallelly at a time. In other words, there is a transmission of n-bits at the same time simultaneously. Multiple transmission lines are used in such modes of transmission. So, multiple data bytes can be transmitted in a single system clock.
