Question 10/18
Question 11/18
Question 12/18
TCP makes the message send quicker.This is done by the least busy route
to the reciever. This is useful because it will go to the address faster without
delay.
The IP tells the packageinportant information such as where the package is

going to, also where it is being send from. This helps getting around the internet
because it can find the destination without going to the wrong address.
Question 13/18
Question 14/18
Firstly so that they can have read/write so that they can add there ideas. This
means that they can add their ideas where ever they want and when ever they
want as long as they have wifi.
Secondly they are given read/write so that they don't delete the file.
This means that they can edit and any errors can be checked and changed.
Question 15/18
Firstly packet switching is good for a WAN because it means that the data will
arrive faster. They will arrive faster because they are traveling in packets insted
of traveling as one big message.
Secondly this is good because it means that packet sniffers (hackers)
can't get the data because they need all the packets to get the message,to do
this they would need to be right outside the recievers house which is nearly
impossible.
Question 16/18
Because if you use online documents it can be changed instantly.

This means that everything is instantly on the updated document so that noone
is writing on an old copy.
Secondly because the colleges can talk through an online conference and show
off new work instantly. This means that you don't have to wait for mail and you
don't have to travel.
Question 17/18
Because packets are one message split into lots of little bit rather than the whole
message. This means that the packets can travel on different routes with lighter
loads so they can find the quickest route and get there faster.
Question 18/18
data protection with explaination
backup files with explaination
laws with explaination
locking computers with explaination.
