Which two factors reduce the experience of an application? (Choose two.)
The correct answer is C. packet loss D. network latency. Packet loss (C) forces the transport layer (TCP) to retransmit dropped data, increasing delays and reducing throughput, which directly degrades real-time and interactive applications. Network latency (D) is the delay in data transmission between source and destination; high…

Explanation
Packet loss (C) forces the transport layer (TCP) to retransmit dropped data, increasing delays and reducing throughput, which directly degrades real-time and interactive applications. Network latency (D) is the delay in data transmission between source and destination; high latency causes sluggish response times, especially in voice, video, and interactive apps. Traffic class (B) is used to prioritize traffic, mitigating rather than causing degradation. Source location affects latency indirectly but is not itself a direct quality factor. Usage (E) can contribute to congestion but is too vague and indirect.
