Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Concept

A communication barrier is classified by the source of interference: meaning, physical conditions, mental state, or cultural context.

Semantic barriers concern the interpretation of words; physical barriers arise from the channel or environment; psychological barriers arise from emotions and attitudes; cultural barriers arise from differing social norms.

Application

  1. A semantic barrier deals with misunderstood words or phrases, so A maps to I.

  2. A physical barrier includes noise or distance, so B maps to II.

  3. A psychological barrier involves emotions or attitudes, so C maps to III.

  4. A cultural barrier reflects differences in social norms, so D maps to IV.

Cross-check

Each meaning belongs to a different source category—language, environment, mind, and culture respectively—so no meaning is reused.

Result

Therefore, the matching sequence is A–I, B–II, C–III, D–IV.
