C. Ensure that new technologies and devices that haven't been invented yet can all use the same methods of communication.

Explanation:

OSI model stands for Open Systems Interconnection. The seven layers of OSI model architecture starts from the Hardware Layers (Layers in Hardware Systems) to Software Layers (Layers in Software Systems) and includes the following;

1. Physical Layer

2. Data link Layer

3. Network Layer

4. Transport Layer

5. Session Layer

6. Presentation Layer

7. Application Layer

Each layer has its unique functionality which is responsible for the proper functioning of the communication services.

Additionally, a standard framework for the transmission of informations on the internet, it is known as the internet protocol suite or Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) model. One of the very basic rule of the TCP/IP protocol for the transmission of information is that, informations are subdivided or broken down at the transport layer, into small chunks called packets rather than as a whole.

Hence, communication protocols, sets of rules agreed to by all parties, are designed in order to ensure that new technologies and devices that haven't been invented yet can all use the same methods of communication.

This ultimately implies, there exist standard frameworks and protocols that are designed and developed to serve pre-existing technologies and devices, as well as those that would be invented in the future.

For example, SMTP is an acronym for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and it uses the standard port number of 25 to provide clients with requested services on an internet-enabled device.
