None of these standards layer governs peer-to-peer file sharing. So, in this question option (d) none of these is the correct choice.

As per the services governed by each layer of OSI model, file sharing is a function of the application layer. This is the highest abstraction layer of the model. In peer-to-peer file sharing, the application layer provides services to locate communication peers and synchronize communications. It provides an interface to users that makes file sharing and accessing possible with other peers required access to the files.

Peer-to-peer file sharing is a kind of networking technology that allows a group of users to directly connect to each other for the purpose of accessing and sharing media files, such as e-books, games, music, and movies over a network. In peer-to-peer file sharing, the term peer refers to the individual users over the network. A peer can play a role of both a client and a server as required. BitT-orrent is one such example of peer-to-peer file sharing.

Computer devices communicate through a standard layered set of guidelines known as protocols. Each layer provides different services in order to make communication possible. The OSI model is one such example of a layered model. Seven layers of the OSI model with the services each layer support are described below:

  1. Application Layer: It contains communication services such as message handling and file transfer of all kinds including FTP, peer-to-peer, client-server etc.
  2. Presentation Layer: The presentation layer provides rules for the translation of data transferred between applications.
  3. Session Layer: It includes guidelines for remote logins to facilitate specific session activation and authorization.
  4. Transport Layer: Rules for transparent, reliable data transfer between computers are offered by the transport layer.
  5. Network Layer: This layer en-routes the data and packets to their destination over the network, providing end-to-end file sharing and data transfer.
  6. Data-Link Layer: The flow of information and error checking is controlled by this layer.
  7. Physical Layer: The physical layer governs rules to control hardware.

Thus,  peer-to-peer file sharing governs by application layer.
