1. How does a host on an Ethernet LAN know when to transmit after a collision has occurred?

1  In a CSMA/CD collision domain, multiple stations can successfully transmit data simultaneously.
   2 In a CSMA/CD collision domain, stations must wait until the media is not in use before       transmitting.
   3 You can improve the CSMA/CD network by adding more hubs.
   4 After a collision, the station that detected the collision has first priority to resend the lost data.
   5 After a collision, all stations run a random backoff algorithm. When the backoff delay period has expired, all stations have equal priority to transmit data.
