Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Computer Networking, Transmission media can be defined as the physical paths between a transmitting device and a receiving device through which data signals are being sent from one end to another in a network.

Hence, transmission media comprise the path that data takes to flow between devices on the network.

There are basically two (2) main types of transmission media and these are;

1. Guided media: it is a media which uses a bounded or wired channel to transmit data at a secured and high speed. It comprises of coaxial cable, twisted-pair cable and fiber-optic cable.

2. Unguided media: it is typically a wireless transmission media such as infrared, microwaves, radiowaves through an unbounded channel.
