Explanation

A motherboard lets the processor and other hardware operate and communicate with each other.

BIOS initializes and tests the system hardware and loads the operating system at power-on.

CMOS stores the date, time and system configuration used by the BIOS.

HTTP transfers the contents of web pages into a web browser for viewing.

This pairs motherboard with functioning, BIOS with startup testing, CMOS with the configuration store and HTTP with page transfer.

A small CMOS battery keeps the clock and settings alive when the machine is switched off.
