- BRheostat and film type resistor.
- CRheostat and variable resistor.
- DComposition type resistor and rheostat.

Answer
- 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.
