Given below are two statements. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Statement I:Every type of communication contains noise.

Statement II:Noise in communication cannot be eliminated completely, but can be reduced.

ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true ✓ Correct

BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false

CStatement I is true but Statement II is false

DStatement I is false but Statement II is true

Correct answer: (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are true

Explanation

Both claims about noise hold true, since noise is a universal companion of communication that can be trimmed but never wiped out.

Statement 1 is correct because every type of communication carries some noise, whether physical, physiological, psychological or semantic.

Statement 2 is correct because that noise can be reduced through care and clarity, yet some interference always remains.

The two statements sit together, one asserting noise is ever-present and the other setting the realistic limit on removing it.

Neither sentence overreaches, so reading either as false would misstate how noise behaves.

Shannon and Weaver first foregrounded noise as the element that can distort a message between sender and receiver.
