Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

"Noise" refers to any interference that hinders effective communication, such as the use of unfamiliar jargon in this scenario.

Answer: D
 "Nonverbal communication" involves using body language or other cues to convey a message, which could also be relevant in this scenario if the marketing VP was using nonverbal cues that were confusing or misleading.

Answer: E
 The "grapevine" refers to informal communication channels among employees, which could be relevant if some people were receiving conflicting information about the marketing VP's jargon through informal channels.

Note: None of the other choices (A, B, or F) seems particularly relevant to this scenario, although they could apply in other situations.
