Nope. There is no server in peer to peer networks. Only client computers connected to each other.

decentralized resources resource sharing without a dedicated server
A peer-to-peer network is not required for have a server at all. Therefore, any peer-to-peer network could be formed without a server.
Peer-to-peer
Distinguish between Peer-to-Peer and server based networks
Peer to Peer networking has no central "hub" to store the data to be downloaded. When a Client needs information, they connect to other clients on a network to download that information. An example of Peer-to-Peer networking is BitTorrent. Client-Server Networks use a central computer as a hub to store information. So when a client needs to access information, they need to access the Server for that data. An example of a Client-Server Network is any website.
client server n peer to peer
Two types of peer-to-peer networks exist that are:• Pure peer-to-peer Network:All Peers act as equals mean to say that there is no dedicated server, all behaves equally• Hybrid peer-to-peer Network:It act as the client¬server model because it has a central peer act as server that keeps information on peers and responds to requests for that information. Central server (peer) knows what resources are shared and what are free. They are also responsible for hosting management of available resources.
That is false. Domain models are server-based networks while workgroups are peer-to-peer networks.
Both use the same medium to send and recieve information.
d.)The expense of a server is difficult to justify for most home networks.
