B could work too. The port helps choose the protocol. But D feels more accurate.

I think D is the best answer. A service opens the port and listens.

I definitely recall that a service opens a port to listen for traffic, but I wonder if there are other aspects we should consider too.

I’m a bit confused; I thought services could close ports after inactivity, but that might not be the main relationship.

I remember something about services and ports from practice questions, and I feel like the service relies on the port to select the protocol.

I think a service opens the port and listens for network traffic, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only function it has.
