Answer:
1. Application data
2. segments
3. packets
4. frames
5. bits
Explanation:
The correct sequence of steps in converting application data to bits for network transmission on a TCP/IP network is as follows:
1. Application data: the conversion and formatting of information into data is done in Upper layers then moved to Transport Layer.
2. segments: at this stage, the data is turned into segments and then moved to the Network layer.
3. packets: at this point, the segment is transformed into packets and then moved to the Data Link layer
4. frames: here the packets are converted to frames and moved to the physical layer.
5. bits: this is where the frames are converted bits and then sent to the network outlet.
