  1. Correct answer is: A, D, E

    B is incorrect because the devices connected to the HUB are in the same collision domain. A HUB is a repeater so it does not form broadcast domains; broadcast domains “are created” by switches, routers and bridges.

    1. To be precise, a HUB does not form a new broadcast domain. This is because a collision domain is also a broadcast domain but not the other way around.

      1. Anyway given this rule “This is because a collision domain is also a broadcast domain but not the other way around.” B is also true. The question is ambiguous. Based on how it is interpreted, the following are true: A, B, D, E.

    2. you are seeing this in a wrong way, a hub is in fact a repeater, so it does form a broadcast domain, because all end stations will receive the signal, that is nothing stopping all systems is a hub to receive the signal, so it does form a broadcast domain, in the E they do not form a broadcast domain, maybe u are imagining things in the wrong way, think about interfaces.
