Explanation
a) Input devices are peripherals/ hardware / devices Connected to the computer that are used to send data I information/ signals/ commands to the computer system.
OR
Input devices are peripherals / hardware/devices that allow users to interact with/control the computer sys- tem/computer / digital electronics machine.
