Answer
A
sender, router 1, router 2, router 3, receiver
B
sender, router 1, receiver
C
sender, receiver, router 1, router 2
D
router 1, sender, router 2, receiver

Explanation

A packet travels from the sender toward the receiver, passing through routers that forward it along the network. The route may use different numbers of routers, but “sender, router 1, router 2, router 3, receiver” best represents this general path. Choices C and D put devices in an illogical order, and B shows only one router.
