A host on a bus network is called a station. In a bus network, every station will receive all network traffic, and the traffic generated by each station has equal transmission priority.[3] A bus network forms a single network segment and collision domain. In order for nodes to share the bus, they use a medium access control technology such as carrier-sense multiple access (CSMA) or a bus master. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_network The answer is Bus as with a star topology, the branches cannot communicate with each other. https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/computer-science/star-topology

This is an example of a "Star" topology. In a Star topology, all devices (in this case, telephones) are connected to a central hub or switch (the switchboard operator in this scenario). The central hub or switch controls the flow of data (in this case, phone calls) between the devices. In the context of early telephone systems, the switchboard operator played the role of the central hub in a Star topology by manually connecting calls between callers.

A star network is an implementation of a spoke–hub distribution paradigm in computer networks. In a star network, every host is connected to a central hub. In its simplest form, one central hub acts as a conduit to transmit messages. The star network is one of the most common computer network topologies.
