Which of the following is incorrect about OSI model?

  1. OSI stands for Open System Internet.

  3. TCP does not pass data to the network until it knows that the destination is ready to receive it.
  4. TCP uses a mechanism of the three-way handshake, timers, acknowledgments and dynamic windowing to achieve reliable features.
  5. TCP provides congestion control through the use of flow control and dynamic window sizes.
