Correct answer: D
Answer: Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is true.
Why Statement I is incorrect:
A BƩzier curve is defined by control points that influence the shape of the curve. The curve generally passes through the first and last control points (endpoints), but intermediate control points do not usually lie on the curve; they pull the curve toward them rather than being interpolated.
Why Statement II is true:
A cubic BƩzier curve is specified by four control points, commonly labeled P0, P1, P2, and P3.
Its parametric form (for 0 ⤠t ⤠1) is B(t) = (1 - t)^3 P0 + 3t(1 - t)^2 P1 + 3t^2(1 - t) P2 + t^3 P3, which uses exactly four control points.
Conclusion: Statement I is false because BƩzier curves do not interpolate all control points (only endpoints are guaranteed); Statement II is true because a cubic BƩzier curve is defined by four control points.
