Physical communication circuits are
-
perfect
-
not perfect
-
both 1 and 2
-
none of these
B
Correct answer
Explanation
Physical communication circuits are subject to various types of interference, noise, and signal attenuation, which can cause data errors. Because they are not perfect, network protocols must include mechanisms for error detection and correction to ensure reliable data transfer. This reality of physical media is why layers like the Data Link layer are essential.
