A1, 2 & 3 only

B2, 3 & 4 only

C3, 4 & 5 only

D1, 4 & 5 only ✓ Correct

Correct answer: (D) 1, 4 & 5 only

Explanation

Linear communication's advantages are that it suits persuasion, serves international propaganda, and gives demarcated results.

Statement 1 holds because the one-way push is well suited to persuading an audience.

Statement 4 holds because international propaganda relies on this direct, one-way flow.

Statement 5 holds because a fixed one-way path yields clear, demarcated outcomes.

Statement 2 fails since linear communication lacks feedback and cannot quicken it.

Statement 3 fails because the linear model is one-way, not a two-way exchange.
