transmitted based on data contained in the packet without the need for a data channel
requires the client and the server to establish a connect on before sending the packet
used to reliably share files between devices
appropriate for streaming operations with minimal latency
TCP
UDP
Explanation

TCP is a connection-oriented transport protocol: endpoints establish a session before data transfer, and TCP provides sequencing, acknowledgments, and retransmission for reliable delivery, which makes it suitable for file transfer. UDP is connectionless: each datagram is sent independently without establishing a session, which reduces overhead and latency, making it well suited to real-time streaming where speed matters more than guaranteed delivery.
