what would this to be?
movw %ax, %bx

Since you are using the % I assume that you are using the AT&T syntax, so that would put the lower 16 bits of eax into the lower 16 bits of
ebx, which would make ebx = 0x103, since that value would fit into
the lower 16 bits and the upper 16 bits would all be 0 in both eax and
ebx before the instruction.

Right explanation, wrong answer. It would make ebx = 0x101. 

Thank you.  My type bad sometimes.
ebx would be 0x101.
