Question 9

With TCP/IP protocol, the data packets can arrive at different times at the final location.

Answer

True

Reason — TCP/IP is responsible for providing reliable data transmission between networked computers by splitting messages into smaller packets if required. It handles addressing, mapping, and acknowledgment of data packets to ensure successful delivery across the network. Additionally, it keeps track of what is sent and retransmits anything that did not get through. Therefore, data packets can arrive at different times at the final location.
