Question:

How do mobile phones work?

Could someone answer simply with not many words how mobile phones work

Answer:

well there are cell phone towers everywhere and when you make a call on your mobile phone it sends the signal to the nearest switchboard, which then sends it to the nearest tower, and then that signal is sent to the other phone you are calling. think of a walkie talkie. your cell phone is basically a really advanced walkie talkie. hope that helps?
Mobile phones have a couple basic features: 1. You can call any number you need to, just like a regular phone -for this you have an address book, to keep all the numbers organized 2. You can usually send messages to other phones, kind of like e-mailing, but called text messaging or texting. It is a special king of messaging made just for phones. You can only text message another mobile phone. 3. Many phones have additional features nowadays, including cameras, games, etc.
