How does a host on an Ethernet LAN know when to transmit after a collision has occurred?<br>1. In a CSMA/CD collision domain, multiple stations can successfully transmit data simultaneously.<br>2. In a CSMA/CD collision domain, stations must wait until the media is not in use before transmitting.<br>3. You can improve the CSMA/CD network by adding more hubs.<br>4. After a collision, the station that detected the collision has first priority to resend the lost data.<br>5. After a collision, all stations run a random backoff algorithm. When the backoff delay period has expired, all stations have equal priority to transmit data.

Once transmitting stations on an Ethernet segment hear a collision, they send an extended jam signal to ensure that all stations recognize the collision. After the jamming is complete, each sender waits a predetermined amount of time, plus a random time. After both timers expire, they are free to transmit, but they must make sure the media is clear before transmitting and that they all have equal priority.
