Solution

The correct option is B TCP/IP

TCP/IP is the protocol used for the internet.

TCP/IP, or the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, is a suite of communication protocols used to interconnect network devices on the internet. TCP/IP can also be used as a communications protocol in a private network (an intranet or an extranet).

The Internet works by using a protocol called TCP/IP, or Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. ... In base terms, TCP/IP allows one computer to talk to another computer via the Internet through compiling packets of data and sending them to right location.

The Internet Protocol (IP) is the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries. Its routing function enables internetworking, and essentially establishes the Internet. ... The Internet protocol suite is therefore often referred to as TCP/IP.

The difference is that TCP is responsible for the data delivery of a packet and IP is responsible for the logical addressing. In other words, IP obtains the address and TCP guarantees delivery of data to that address.
