BIOS
The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) tells your computer what to do everytime it starts up. Have you ever seen the movie '50 first Dates'? The woman in the movie forgot everything she did prevoius day everytime she woke up. She's like your computer. To remind herself who she is and what's her purpose, she would have to write what her name was, what to do and how to do it, etc.. The piece of paper she wrote it on is her BIOS. Without the BIOS your computer would just be metal, taking up space.
The BIOS has a little battery attached to it on the motherboard, if it's taken off, the BIOS resets itself to how it was when you first got it.
The BIOS is attached to your motherboard and is really small. The one's we saw were about 1inch x 1inch. Usually they're labeled, but not always.
