13. The session layer of the OSI model is responsible for establishing synchronization points.
ANS: T PTS: 1 REF: 18
14. The network layer of the OSI model is an end-to-end layer.
ANS: F PTS: 1 REF: 18
15. The data link layer of the OSI model can incorporate some form of error detection software.
ANS: T PTS: 1 REF: 18
16. The TCP/IP protocol suite does not have rigidly defined layers as the OSI model does.
