C

28. Which statement is true about the CSMA/CD access method that is used in Ethernet? When a device hears a carrier signal and transmits, a collision cannot occur. A jamming signal causes only devices that caused the collision to execute a backoff algorithm. All network devices must listen before transmitting. Devices involved in a collision get priority to transmit after the backoff period.
