I have to ask a question, did you not read your book? I'm sure that all of these devices are described in your text book. If that book was not clear to you, then I would be glad to assist you if you would email me. A resistor resists, a capacitor has capacity, a diode is a 2 terminal device that only conducts in one direction, a transistor is a three terminal device, usually modeled as 2 diodes for discussions sake, and a transformer transforms voltages and currents.

Resistor:A resistor is a two-terminal electrical or electronic component that resists an electric current by producing a voltage drop between its terminals.
Capacitor: is an electrical device that can store energy in the electric field between a pair of closely-spaced conductors (called 'plates'). When voltage is applied to the capacitor, electric charges of equal magnitude, but opposite polarity, build up on each plate. Capacitors are used in electrical circuits as energy-storage devices
Conductor: materials that allow current to flow through them.
Diode:is a component that restricts the direction of movement of charge carriers. Essentially, it allows an electric current to flow in one direction, but blocks it in the opposite direction.
Transistor: device that uses a small amount of voltage or electrical current to control a larger change in voltage or current.
Transformer:electrical device that transfers energy from one circuit to another.
Bit:is a digit in the binary numeral system, which consists of base 2 digits (i.e., there are only two possible values for each digit, viz. 0 or 1). For example, the number 10010111 is 8 bits long.

Too big a question. Go research a bit, Wikipedia, whatever, then come back with a narrower question or 2.

You're a glutten for punishment. Take a class in knitting, it should be easier that physics. Bummer.
