Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The path that data travels between computers in a network is called ____
A
Geographical Topology
B
Network Topology
C
Logical Topology
D
Physical topology
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In contrast, logical topology is the way that the signals act on the network media, or the way that the data passes through the network from one device to the next without regard to the physical interconnection of the devices. A network’s logical topology is not necessarily the same as its physical topology.

Detailed explanation-2: -Physical Topology means the physical layout of the network. Logical topology means how the network device layout will be shown and how the data will be transferred. For example − Ring, Bus, Star, and Mesh. For example − Ring and Bus.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bus topology is the simplest type of network topology. All devices are connected to a single cable, called a bus. Data travels in one direction along the bus, from the source to the destination. All devices attached to the bus can see all traffic on the bus, regardless of which device is sending or receiving data.
