A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Each computer acts as both client and server and directly communicates with other computers in the network. In a P2P network, all computers on the network can access client devices directly connected to one specific computer on the network. The only requirement is a means of connection, such as a Wi-Fi router.

Detailed explanation-2: -The primary difference between these two terms is that, in a peer-to-peer network, every node can ask for assistance and deliver services. While in a client-server network, the client nodes demand services and the server node answers with assistance.

Detailed explanation-3: -Peer-to-peer, or P2P in its abbreviated form, refers to computer networks using a distributed architecture. In P2P networks, all the computers and devices that are part of them are referred to as peers, and they share and exchange workloads. Each peer in a peer-to-peer network is equal to the other peers.
