Question: Which of the following best explains how data is typically assembled in packets for transmission over the Internet?
My Answer: Each packet contains an encrypted version of the data to be transmitted, along with metadata containing the key needed to decrypt the data.
Correct Answer: Each packet contains data to be transmitted, along with metadata containing information used for routing the data.
Reflection: I was confused about the concept of packets and how they are assembled. I thought that packets were encrypted, but they are not. They are just data that is sent over the internet.
Reflection
I learned that packets are not encrypted when they are sent over the internet. They are just data that is sent over the internet. I also learned that packets contain metadata that is used for routing the data. I will remember this for the future when I am learning about networking and how data is sent over the internet.
