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

Statement I:The disadvantage of interpersonal communication is the availability of immediate feedback.
Statement II:The greatest advantage of mass communication is its delayed feedback.
ABoth Statement I and Statement II are correct
BBoth Statement I and Statement II are incorrect ✓ Correct
CStatement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
DStatement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
Correct answer: (B) Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
Explanation

Both statements are wrong: immediate feedback is an advantage of interpersonal communication, and delayed feedback is a disadvantage, not an advantage, of mass communication.

Statement 1 is false because instant feedback in face-to-face exchange helps correct and adjust the message at once.

Statement 2 is false because the slow, delayed feedback of mass media weakens it rather than strengthening it.

Interpersonal communication gains its strength precisely from that immediate response.

Mass communication struggles because the sender learns the audience reaction only late.

The two statements reverse the actual merits of each form.
