In a packet-switched data network, what is used to reassemble the packets in the correct order at the destination device?
The destination ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) address is the MAC (Media Access Control) address that corresponds to the IP address of the intended recipient of a data packet on a local network. When a device wants to communicate with another device, it uses ARP to map the IP address to its MAC address. If the MAC address is not already known, the device broadcasts an ARP request to the network, and the device with the matching IP address responds with its MAC address. This process enables devices to communicate effectively over Ethernet networks.
A router connects multiple computers together and transmits data to its correct destination on a network.
Latency is the time a frame or a packet takes to travel from the source to the destination.
A unicast message is a message directed to a specific device on a network (just one specific device). It would have a destination IP address that corresponds to that device.

MAC address is a unique number which is necessary for communication between computers in network. It identifies a source and destination device within a Ethernet network.

You seem to be referring to a NIC (Network interface card).
In a wireless local area network (WLAN), the device that determines the next network point to which a packet should be forwarded is typically the wireless access point (WAP) or router. It uses routing protocols and information about the network topology to make forwarding decisions, directing packets toward their destination based on the best available path.
The destination address that receives a frame refers to the unique identifier associated with the intended recipient of the data packet within a network. In Ethernet frames, this is typically the MAC (Media Access Control) address of the device that is meant to receive the frame. The destination address ensures that the data is delivered to the correct device on a local area network (LAN) or other networking environments.
