I think option A is correct. It follows the standard OSI model.

I’m surprised A is even an option, that’s totally wrong!

D is correct, just remember the layers from bottom to top!

I feel like I’ve seen a similar question in our study materials, and I’m leaning towards option D as well. It just makes sense to me.

I think the correct order starts with the physical layer and ends with the application layer, but I’m not sure about the middle layers.
