Well.. firt of all one should know what a protocol actually means:
A Protocol is bascially set of rules designed and developed for the internetwork or can say intranetwork Communications. the need of Tcp had been rised in early years when like.. IBM Mainframe were not able to Communicate with the Burroughs mainframe.. means if you wish to connect 2 or more computers they should be same with everything from manufacturer to designer and implementer…then TCP imerged as a solution-for-ever..
EARLIER it was NCP( Network Control Protocal) but later it refined into TCP( Transmission Control Protocol) and IP(Internet Protocol)on jan.1,1983..
Some General roles of TCP/IP are:
1. Independence from particular vendor or network.
2. very low data overhead
3. good failure recovery.
and if the thinghs are taken seprately.. then
TCP is bascially responsible for proper data transmission by assuring data integrity it is a connection oriented protocol that follows the under scenerio
1. Handshaking.
2. Packect Sequencing
3. Flow Control.
4. Error handling.
IP : Since the data to be sent must be put somewhere the IP works here .. the required data is packaged in an IP packet.

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a set of rules (protocol) used along with the Internet Protocol (IP) to send data in the form of message units between computers over the Internet. While IP takes care of handling the actual delivery of the data, TCP takes care of keeping track of the individual units of data (called packets) that a message is divided into for efficient routing through the Internet.

Hi,
The Before answer is well explianed.
Before start any Transminisation TCP breaks a complete data into Packets and create session between source and destination.And TCP holds total counts of complete data or packet(or we can tell as start and end packet)
Reg:IP
-------
IP adds Source and Destination IP address.

Well they are the two most important protocols used in the IP model of networking.
Here TCP basically provides a kind of Reliable services means a guaranteed delivery of data to the other end by implementing the sequencing,packetization ,acknowledgment schemes.
Whereas the IP provides unreliable best effort services.It mostly deals with the packet routing and the congestion control mechanisms.It never bothers about the assured delivery of the data packet it just forwards it into the network and forgets.This forwarding will be done depending upon the destination address present in the IP Header.
Remember the flow control and the error handling will be taken care by the NAL-network access layer ie the 1st layer of the IP model.

TCP is layer 4 protocol used for end to end reliable communication as well as IP is layer 3 protocol used for Routing and best path selection

TCP(transmission control protocol) works on OSI 4th layer for reliable transmission & IP work on 3rd layer of OSI used for routing.

in this layer 4 protocol used for end to end reliable communication but layer 3 protocol used for routing and best selection

i think TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a set of rules (protocol) used along with the Internet Protocol (IP) to send data in the form of message units between computers over the Internet. While IP takes care of handling the actual delivery of the data, TCP takes care of keeping track of the individual units of data (called packets) that a message is divided into for efficient routing through the Internet.

The Defense Advance Research Projects Agency (DARPA) originally developed Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to interconnect various defense department computer networks. The Internet, an international Wide Area Network, uses TCP/IP to connect government and educational institutions across the world. TCP/IP is also in widespread use on commercial and private networks. The TCP/IP suite includes the following protocols.

TCP/IP is arguably the single most important computer networking technology. The Internet and most home networks support TCP/IP as the "language" computers use to find and connect with each other.

IP is a layer 3 protocol that provides routing functionality to find the nearest path to the destination and tcp is a layer 4 protocol in tcp/ip stack and provide flow control, error control and sequencing mechanism etc. It regulate the transmission of packets inflow and outflow.

tcp/ip is a protocol suite and is alyered architecture model that describes how data communication takes palce among communicating devices and tcp and ip are the two different protocols reside on transport layer ( layer 4) and nework layer ( layer3 ) respectively. tcp is a connection oriented protocol nd ip is a connectionless protocol.
