Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Answer: a → Manage dialogue control; b → Virtual terminal software; c → Semantics of the information transmitted; d → Flow control.

  • Session layer — Manages dialogue control: establishes, maintains, and terminates sessions between applications (a → Manage dialogue control).

  • Application layer — Provides user-level services such as virtual terminal software (b → Virtual terminal software).

  • Presentation layer — Handles data representation and semantics (syntax, encryption, compression), so it matches semantics of transmitted information (c → Semantics of the information transmitted).

  • Transport layer — Ensures end-to-end communication services such as flow control and error recovery (d → Flow control).

Quick summary: Match each layer to its primary responsibility rather than specific programs. Application provides services to users, presentation handles representation/semantics, session controls dialogues, and transport manages reliable transfer and flow control.
