What is the term used to describe not just hearing but also processing the information conveyed?

  1. a. Message

  2. b. Noise

  3. c. Listening

  4. d. Feedback

The correct answer is: c. Listening

Listening is the term used to describe not just hearing but also actively processing the information conveyed.

This is why the term "listening" is the correct answer in this question.
