Answer: c) - Yes, spheroidized steel are considered as composite. the dispersed phase is iron carbide.

Explanation: Spheroidized steel are the alloy that have iron as the basic part that have been heat treated to increase their ductility and malleability property. They are considered as composite because they are made up of iron alloys. The heat treatment is usually for the carbon steel and so the dispersed phase that is obtained is iron carbide.
