Transport layer aggregates data from different applications into a single stream before passing it to Network Layer. This process is called ____

A	Multiplexing
B	DeMultiplexing
C	Connection
D	Connectionless

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Transport layer aggregates data from different applications into a single stream beforepassing it toa) network layerb) data link layerc) application layerd) physical layerAnswer: aView AnswerExplanation: None.

Detailed explanation-2: -The transport layer is responsible for flow control. It uses the sliding window protocol that makes the data transmission more efficient as well as it controls the flow of data so that the receiver does not become overwhelmed. Sliding window protocol is byte oriented rather than frame oriented.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Transport layer receives the data stream from the upper layers. It breaks the received data stream into smaller pieces. This process is known as segmentation.

Detailed explanation-4: -In the OSI model the transport layer is often referred to as Layer 4, or L4, while numbered layers are not used in TCP/IP. The best-known transport protocol of the Internet protocol suite is the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP).
