Explanation

The correct arrangement maps characteristics to their respective cable types: Coaxial/Copper cables are 'affected by electrical and magnetic interference' and 'easy to tap into and obtain secure information' because they transmit electrical signals susceptible to EMI and physical eavesdropping. Multimode fiber optic cable experiences 'increased refraction between cladding and core as it travels' due to multiple light paths causing modal dispersion, while fiber optic cable in general 'transmits signals using pulses of light' using LED or laser technology immune to EMI.
