Jump Wires, commonly used with a breadboard, are used to transfer electrical signals from one part of the breadboard to the central microcontroller. Jump wires vary in size and color to distinguish what object they are working with. Sensors, buttons, and other such things all use jump wires to communicate with the microcontroller.
