Hint:

In networking, different layers handle different data units — remember the order: Bit → Frame → Datagram → Segment → Message (from Physical to Application layer).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Let us match each layer from Group-1 to its corresponding data unit in Group-2:

(A) Physical layer uses transmission units of individual bits: \(\Rightarrow\) e. Bit

(B) Data Link layer works with frames for error detection and framing: \(\Rightarrow\) d. Frame

(C) Network layer handles packets, often called datagrams: \(\Rightarrow\) b. Datagram

(D) Transport layer manages segments in protocols like TCP: \(\Rightarrow\) a. Segment

(E) Application layer deals with complete messages as seen by applications: \(\Rightarrow\) c. Message
