   3. Session layer
   4. Transport layer
   5. Datalink layer
2. You are working in a word processing program, which is run from the file server. Your data comes back to you in an unintelligible manner. Which layer of the OSI model would you investigate?
   1. Application layer
   2. Presentation layer
   3. Session layer
   4. Network layer
   5. Datalink layer

   1. Physical
   2. MAC
   3. LLC
   4. Session

4. You are working with graphic translations. Which layer of the OSI model is responsible for code formatting and conversion and graphic standards.
   1. Network layer
   2. Session layer
   3. Transport layer

5. Which is the best definition of encapsulation?
   1. Each layer of the OSI model uses encryption to put the PDU from the upper layer into its data field. It adds header and trailer information that is available to its counterpart on the system that will receive it.
   2. Data always needs to be tunneled to its destination so encapsulation must be used.
   3. Each layer of the OSI model uses compression to put the PDU from the upper layer into its data field. It adds header and trailer information that is available to its counterpart on the system that will receive it.
   4. Each layer of the OSI model uses encapsulation to put the PDU from the upper layer into its data field. It adds header and trailer information that is available to its counterpart on the system that will receive it.
