Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The static on the cell phone is an example of environmental noise, which refers to any external factors that make it difficult to hear or understand a message. In this case, the noise is coming from the phone's connection or the environment in which the call is taking place. Semantic noise refers to misunderstandings or language barriers, organizational noise refers to issues within the communication channel itself (such as poor design or unclear instructions), and physiological-impairment noise refers to physical issues that affect the ability to communicate effectively (such as deafness or hearing loss).
