Physical Layer: This is the hardware part responsible for transmitting raw bits over a physical medium. Think cables and switches.
Data Link Layer: Ensures error-free data transfer between adjacent network nodes. Includes MAC (Media Access Control) and LLC (Logical Link Control).
Network Layer: Manages data transfer between different networks. Involves routing, switching, and addressing. IP (Internet Protocol) works here.
Transport Layer: Ensures complete data transfer
Pulmonary and Plant Respiration, Animal and Plant Excretion
