In OSI model, when data is sent from device A to device B, the 5th layer to receive data at B is _____

A) Link layer

B) Transport layer

C) Session layer

D) Application layer

Correct Answer : Session layer

Explanation : In OSI reference model, the fifth layer is Session layer. Session layer provides the mechanism for opening, closing and managing a session between end-user application processes. In TCP/IP protocol stack, the functions of the session layer are handled by the transport layer itself and thus the session layer is missing from the TCP/IP model.
