on the cable and packets can be getting dropped. C: Refrigerator compressors and

microwave ovens can cause interference on a network. E: Because orders are up, the

wing’s proximity to the manufacturing shed could be because of electromagnetic interference

from the machines on the production line.

Incorrect answers: B: The janitor’s actions are intermittent, and the network problems
