Computer Networks - OSI and TCP/IP ModelsWhich of the following correctly states the number of layers in the OSI and TCP/IP models?AOSI has 7 layers; TCP/IP has 4 layersBOSI has 4 layers; TCP/IP has 7 layersCBoth OSI and TCP/IP have 5 layersDOSI has 5 layers; TCP/IP has 6 layersCheck Answer
Step-by-Step SolutionSolution:Step 1: Recall OSI model layersThe OSI model is known to have 7 distinct layers: Physical, Data Link, Network, Transport, Session, Presentation, and Application.Step 2: Recall TCP/IP model layersThe TCP/IP model has 4 layers: Network Interface, Internet, Transport, and Application.Final Answer:OSI has 7 layers; TCP/IP has 4 layers -> Option AQuick Check:OSI = 7 layers, TCP/IP = 4 layers [OK]Quick Trick: Remember OSI 7 layers, TCP/IP 4 layers [OK]Common Mistakes:MISTAKESConfusing the number of layers between OSI and TCP/IPThinking both models have the same number of layersMixing up layer names with layer counts
