Correct answer: (C) Statement I is true but Statement II is false

Explanation

The first statement holds and the second fails, since small group communication does fulfil relationship needs.

Close, frequent exchange in a small group builds belonging, support and bonds among members.

This meets the social and emotional side of communication.

The second statement is wrong to say it does not serve task related needs.

Small groups in fact coordinate work, solve problems and reach shared goals together.

Small group communication serves both relationship and task needs at once.
