"¿A qué te dedicas?"

votes
Hi guys, I just joined this website and found it really useful! Especially since I just started learning Spanish for a week now... Hope you guys help me out and push me forward! Would really appreciate some help here!
Since I'm like a total newbie in Spanish, this question might seem lame... Hope you guys don't mind... I came across this question "¿A qué te dedicas?" in my book, and while I understand it means "what's your job" or "what do you do for a living", what does the 'a' actually do in this sentence? Why is it needed?
