The possibility of packet data arriving out of order is true.

When sending information from one computer to another through a server, the information being sent is called data and they are broken down into smaller chunks called packets.

These packets of data the move through internet severs along different pathways which are usually very different with unequal pathways.

Hence, data packets which travels through shorter pathways arrive their destination first before those on the longer trail.

Hence, packets are not always received in the order in which they were sent.

Explaining the other options :

  • Packets aren't sent back when they arrive out of order but are reassembled by the receiving computer.

  • The fact that a certain data packet does not reach their destination does not mean all other data packet will not.

Hence, the true statement is that data packet may arrive their destination out of order.

B. Either every packet will reach her computer or none of them will.

C. Packets that arrive out of order will be sent back to the server.
