Explanation

The VGA monitor uses a 15-pin 3 row connector to connect to a video adapter. Older Color Array (CGA) video standard monitors use 9- pin connectors to connect to DB-9 female connectors on CGA adapters. Answer option D is incorrect. Serial port is the primary means for connecting modems and mouse to a computer. There are two types of serial port connectors, 9-pin and 25-pin. The word serial refers to the that data is sent in series, one bit at a time, over a single wire. This design is significantly slower than sending 8 bits at a time via a parallel channel, but serial signals can travel much farther without degradation. Answer option A is incorrect. The joystick port has a 15-pin 2 row male connector. Answer option C is incorrect. A parallel port is a 25-pin 2 row female connector on the back of a PC. It is used to connect printers, scanners, etc. A parallel port transfers information between computers and peripheral devices 8 bits at a time. ECP, EPP, and SPP are types of parallel ports.
