Drag and Drop Question Drag and drop the TCP or UDP details from the left onto their corresponding protocols on the right. Answer:

The correct answer is TCP; used to reliably share files between devices; supports reliable data transmission; UDP; appropriate for streaming operations with minimal latency; provides best-effort service. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a connection-oriented protocol that guarantees delivery through acknowledgments, retransmission, and sequencing, making it ideal for reliably sharing files between devices and supporting reliable data transmission. UDP (User Datagram Protoco

Correct arrangement

  • TCP
  • used to reliably share files between devices
  • supports reliable data transmission
  • UDP
  • appropriate for streaming operations with minimal latency
  • provides best-effort service

Explanation

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a connection-oriented protocol that guarantees delivery through acknowledgments, retransmission, and sequencing, making it ideal for reliably sharing files between devices and supporting reliable data transmission. UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a connectionless protocol that sends data without establishing a connection or guaranteeing delivery, making it appropriate for streaming operations where speed matters more than perfection and where best-effort service is acceptable. The key distinction is that TCP trades speed for reliability, while UDP trades reliability for low latency and speed.
