Correct! Well done.

Incorrect.

The correct answer is B) HTTP/3 is the HTTP protocol running over QUIC instead of TCP, eliminating head-of-line blocking at the transport layer and enabling faster connection establishment

B

Correct Answer

HTTP/3 is the HTTP protocol running over QUIC instead of TCP, eliminating head-of-line blocking at the transport layer and enabling faster connection establishment

Explanation

HTTP/3 (RFC 9114) runs over QUIC (RFC 9000). Unlike HTTP/2 over TCP (where one lost packet stalls all streams), QUIC provides independent per-stream loss recovery. 0-RTT handshake reduces connection setup overhead.
