What term denotes the response from the receiver back to the sender based on the message?

• A. Noise
• B. Feedback
• C. Encoding
• D. Message

Answer: (B)

Feedback is the response from the receiver back to the sender based on the message. It completes the communication loop by showing how the message was interpreted—whether it was understood, misunderstood, or needs clarification. This helps the sender adjust future messages and ensures active two-way communication. Noise refers to interference that distorts the message, encoding is the process of turning thoughts into a communicable message, and the actual content being sent is the message itself. So the receiver’s corrective or confirming reply is what we call feedback.
