Answer Posted / piyush bhalala

TCP - Transmission Control Protocol

TCP is used for transmission of data from an application to
the network.

TCP is responsible for breaking data down into IP packets
before they are sent, and for assembling the packets when
they arrive.
IP - Internet Protocol

IP takes care of the communication with other computers.

IP is responsible for the sending and receiving data packets
over the Internet.
