    a) Consider sequence numbers, First segment=90

    Second segment=110

    Data in the first segment = 110-90 = 20

    b) Consider the first segment is lost but the second segment arrives at B. In the acknowledgment that Host B sends to Host A, then the acknowledgment number will be first segment of sequence number, that is 90.

    (a) 20 bytes

    (b) 90

    Explanation:

    a. 20 bytes.

    110-90 = 20 Bytes

    Bytes From 90-109 are in the first segment.

    b. 90.

    TCP uses cumulative acknowledgments, so even if it buffers the second segment, the acknowledgment is still for the first segment.
