Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Packets are used for efficient and reliable transmission of data. Instead of transferring a huge file as a single data block, sending it in smaller packets improves transmission rates.

Detailed explanation-2: -Packet Switching transmits data across digital networks by breaking it down into blocks or packets for more efficient transfer using various network devices.

Detailed explanation-3: -TCP/IP specifies how data is exchanged over the internet by providing end-to-end communications that identify how it should be broken into packets, addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination.

Detailed explanation-4: -If some arrive out of order or are entirely missing there’s no system to fix the errors. The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) numbers packets before sending them so that the receiver can correctly reorder the packets and request missing packets be resent.
