It is.

b) Doesn't exist

c) Stands for Carrier Sense Multiple Access (usually paired with CD (Collision Detection)) to describe the physical method Ethernet uses to push bits along the wire

d) Presumably refers to Token Ring - an obsolete (watch me get pings now from all those nerds out there who work in environments where its still used ) networking method that was popular in the late eighties/early nineties
