19)Although not explicitly discussed in the chapter, packet size would seem to have an impact on transmission time. Discuss whether or not this is true and explain why. Specifically compare the concept of the number of bits that constitute the data portion of the packet and the number of bits that constitute the address portion of the packet. Remember that the address is overhead and it has an impact on data transmission rates.

Offer a comprehensive example comparing packet sizes and resulting transmission times. For example, look at some of your e-mail' messages and compare the number of bytes that constitute the message with the number of bytes for the address. Compute the results for several emails and give your conclusions.
