Which two options are IoT use cases that require the low-latency and high reliability that 5G networks provide? (Choose two)
The correct answer is C. Automotive E. Industrial Automation. Automotive and industrial automation are URLLC use cases requiring the sub-millisecond latency and near-100% reliability that only 5G can provide.

Why each option
Automotive and industrial automation are URLLC use cases requiring the sub-millisecond latency and near-100% reliability that only 5G can provide.
Sports and fitness applications are latency-tolerant and do not require the URLLC guarantees of 5G - standard LTE or Wi-Fi is sufficient.
Smart home applications use low-bandwidth, delay-tolerant protocols like Zigbee or Z-Wave and do not depend on low-latency high-reliability 5G connectivity.
Automotive use cases such as vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication and autonomous driving require extremely low latency (sub-1ms) and ultra-high reliability to make real-time safety-critical decisions, making them a primary URLLC target.
Smart city deployments primarily rely on massive sensor connectivity (mMTC) rather than low-latency requirements.
Industrial automation involves closed-loop robotic control and real-time machine coordination where even milliseconds of delay or packet loss can cause safety failures or production shutdowns, directly requiring 5G URLLC guarantees.
General health and wellness monitoring is asynchronous and delay-tolerant; only specialized remote surgery would qualify, but that is not what this option implies.
