Fiber Optic Cables are ____
A
The amount of time it takes for bits to travel from one place to another.
B
How internet bandwidth is measured.
C
Cables that carry light and dramatically increase the speed and accuracy of information over the internet.
D
Used to send bits wirelessly.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Fiber optics is used for long-distance and high-performance data networking. It is also commonly used in telecommunication services, such as internet, television and telephones.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cable uses light to transmit data, which allows for much higher bandwidth and less signal loss. This makes it ideal for applications such as high-speed internet, video streaming, and other data-intensive services.

Detailed explanation-3: -The standard line is that fiber optic networks transfer data at the speed of light. But in reality, light travels about 31 percent slower through fiber optical cables than it does through a vacuum.

Detailed explanation-4: -How Does a Fiber Optic Cable Work? Light travels down a fiber optic cable by bouncing off the walls of the cable repeatedly. Each light particle (photon) bounces down the pipe with continued internal mirror-like reflection. The light beam travels down the core of the cable.
