How do we know what application to send the data to? Say you have 2 Google tabs open and you search 2 different things at the same time. How does the computer not switch the information between the two tabs? Why is it always the right information? Because of ports. Ports uniquely identify different applications or processes running on a single computer allowing different applications to share a single internet connection.
Your computer created 2 separate ports for the Google searches, thereby distinguishing them.
