The twisting in a twisted pair cable helps make the cable immune to electromagnetic interference. These cables are of two types: Shielded and unshielded twisted pair.
if by "twisted pair cable" you mean a cat5 cable which is commonly used as an ethernet cable. then it´s made of copper.
with RJ 45 conecter & unshilded twisted pair cable
twisted pair cable can used as LAN connections....for example CAT5 and CAT6 both twisted pairs.
Twisted pair wiring is a digital signal.Coaxial cable is an analog signal.

Shielded Twisted pair cable
A twisted pair cable consists of two copper conductors, each one with its own plastic insulation and twisted together
Twisted pair cables were invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1881.
CAT 5 Cable and RJ 45 Cable (Twisted-pair Ethernet). Unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable
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.
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.
