The figure given below demonstrates the communication model for a project. What role does the
component D play in the communication model?

A.
Sender

B.
Medium

C.
Encoder

D.
Transporter

Explanation:
The phone lines are the medium between the sender/encoder and the decoder/receiver. The
communication model shows the traversal of information between two hosts, known as the sender
and the receiver. The key components of the model are as follows: Encode: It is used to crypt or
code the message into a language that is understood by others. Decode: It is used to decrypt the
message back into the meaningful codes. Message and feedback message: It is the output of
encoding. Noise: It is referred to anything, which interferes with the transmission and
understanding of the message. Medium: It is the method used to convey the message. In the
communication process, it is the duty of the sender to send clear and complete information to the
receiver so that it is properly received by the receiver, and for confirming that it is properly
understood. The duty of the receiver is to make sure that the information received is understood
and acknowledged properly. A failure in communication can negatively impact the project.
Answer option A is incorrect. The sender is the person sending the message.
Answer option C is incorrect. The encoder is the outgoing fax machine.
Answer option D is incorrect. The transporter is not part of the communication model.
