  • Question
  • Acknowledgments, sequencing, and flow control are characteristics of which OSI layer?


  • Options
  • A. Layer 2
  • B. Layer 3
  • C. Layer 4
  • D. Layer 7

  • Correct Answer
  • Layer 4 

    Explanation
    A reliable Transport layer connection uses acknowledgments to make sure all data is transmitted and received reliably. A reliable connection is defined by a virtual circuit that uses acknowledgments, sequencing, and flow control, which are characteristics of the Transport layer (layer 4).
