A motherboard is a printed circuit board used in a personal computer. It is also known as the mainboard and occasionally abbreviated to mobo or MB. The term mainboard is also used for the main circuit board in this and other electronic devices.
A typical motherboard provides attachment points for one or more of the following: CPU, graphics card, sound card, hard disk controller, memory (RAM), and external peripheral devices. The connectors for external peripherals are nearly always color coded according to the PC 99 specification.

it will vary somewhat according to what is integrated but usually you will find:
disk controller (IDE, SATA or both?)
Power connections (often more than one)
CPU
CPU fan on top of the CPU
Slots for RAM memory
Slots for additional cards (usually PCI)
Connections on the "back" for mouse, keyboard
Often sound connections for speakers, microphone

Usually a battery of some kind
Northbridge & southbridge chips
Sometimes video connections and usb connections are integrated on the motherboard.
