Question #1
What happens on a shared Ethernet network using a Bus Topology layout if a data frame reaches either extreme physical endpoint without encountering a terminator component?
A. The data frame loops back through the local host interface automatically.
B. The signal transforms into an analog wave profile.
C. The data frame is safely archived on the primary server.
D. The signal bounces back along the cable, creating interference that corrupts ongoing network traffic.

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Without a terminator to absorb signals at the endpoints of a bus network, signal bounce creates interference that corrupts data traffic.
