Which of the following best describes TCP versus UDP protocols?

Which of the following best describes TCP versus UDP protocols?

A.
TCP provides more services and is more reliable, but UDP provides more security services.

B.
TCP provides a best-effort delivery, and UDP sets up a virtual connection with the destination.

C.
TCP is reliable, and UDP deals with flow control and ACKs.

D.
TCP provides more services and is more reliable in data transmission, whereas UDP takes less resources and overhead to transmit data.

Explanation:
TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, meaning it provides a more
reliable connection, controls data flow, performs error detection and correction,
and sets up a virtual connection. UDP (or any connectionless protocol) does not
provide any of these services.
