Question
Carbon resistors are of two types:

Answer

  1. Composition type resistor and film type resistor.
Explanation:
Carbon resistors are of two types  composition type resistor and film type resistor.
There are a number of different types of fixed resistor:
Carbon composition: These types were once very common, but are now seldom used.
Carbon film: This resistor type is formed by "cracking" a hydrocarbon onto a ceramic former.
