The primary advantage of coaxial cable compared to twisted pair is the braided metal shield is very good at blocking electromagnetic signals from entering the cable and producing noise. And has also been used for long-distance telephone transmission, as the cabling within a local area network, and as a connector between a computer terminal and a mainframe computer.
Cheaper as it requires less materials (UTP costs less per meter/foot than any other type of LAN cable.)
Thin and flexible so is good over a small local area network. Means it's more portable also. (Ethernet cables are twisted pair).
Hmmm, sounds like a good homework question. :)
Coaxial cable has a central core conductor of solid wire enclosed in an insulator. For which it is superior than twisted pair cable.
Its cheaper, more flexible and can be made to any impedience (VSWR matching for antennas)
performs better over long distances
provides better error performance
more secure

coaxial cable and twisted pair cable. coaxial cable is the most widely used type of transmission line.
No. Coaxial cable is a single wire that has a thick coating around it. A common use of coaxial cable is for cable television. This is the cable that goes from the jack on the wall into your cable box. Twisted pair contains multiple cables which are split into pairs and twisted together. CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6 cable are all examples of twisted pair. There are a total of 8 wires inside. Every two wires are twisted together to form a pair. The purpose of the cables being twisted together is to reduce electrical interference between the wires.

Both the coaxial cable and twisted pair cable have a basic connection medium for network cabling. <<>> Coaxial cable can be used for transmission of RF (radio frequencies) whereas Cat 5 (twisted pairs cable) can not.
A UTP cable has 4 pairs of twisted wires. In a coaxial cable, there are two conductors, one inside the other. Since they have a common center, or axis, they are called "coaxial" (co-axial).A UTP cable has 4 pairs of twisted wires. In a coaxial cable, there are two conductors, one inside the other.

It is not true. Attenuation is higher in twisted pair cable. See related links: It is, because coaxial cable is concluded system and magnetic field of signal in coaxial cable is kept inside the cable so there is little energy losses because no energy is spent on inducing currents outside of cable.

One primary advantage of UTP over STP or Fiber is cost. Twisted pair is also more simple to use in many applications (telephone, serial data, etc.) than fiber.
