Answer: (C)
● Statement 1 is correct: A composite material is created by combining two or more distinct components. In the case of carbon fibre composites (often called carbon fibre reinforced polymers, or CFRP), thin strands of carbon atoms (the fibres) provide the tensile strength, while a polymer resin matrix (like epoxy or polyurethane) binds them together, distributes the load, and protects the fibres from environmental damage.
● Statement 2 is correct: One of the primary reasons carbon fibre composites are highly valued in aerospace, automotive, and high-performance engineering is their exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. They can be up to five times stronger than structural steel while weighing only about one-fifth as much.

Therefore, option C is the correct answer
