Hey I am currently a sophmore in college and just had a few questions about electronics. I hope you'll have fun answering some of them but please dont just randomly guess =P.

Alright there are 22 questions about electronics and I bolded the answers to it but I was told that four of them are wrong ( 3 Multiple checks, 1 single check) It would mean a lot to me if you could find out which ones I answered wrong because I really would like to know my errors but I couldn't find them.

2. Which of the following are attributes of singlemode fiber optic cable? (Choose two.)
a) one path of light
