If Host Q is willing to open the connection, it will transmit a SYN/ACK segment, indicating that it agrees to synchronize sequence numbers and acknowledges the receipt of Host P's SYN segment. Host P will then respond with an ACK segment, indicating that it has received Host Q's SYN/ACK and is ready to establish the connection. Therefore, the correct choice is C.

Host P Transmits a SYN Segment to Host Q
