Which protocol operates at the Application layer of the TCP/IP model and is primarily used to retrieve web pages from a server?
TCP
HTTP
Ethernet
IP
The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) resides in the Application layer of the TCP/IP model and enables clients such as web browsers to request and receive web pages from servers. Internet Protocol (IP) functions in the Internet layer, Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) operates in the Transport layer, and Ethernet is part of the Network Access or Link layer. Because only HTTP provides the application-level rules for exchanging web content, it is the correct choice, while the other options belong to lower layers and serve different purposes.
