Who is responsible for conveying information in the communication process?

Receiver
Listener
Decoder
Sender

The correct answer is: Sender

In the communication process, the sender holds the responsibility of conveying information to the intended audience. The sender initiates the communication by encoding the message and selecting the channel for transmission. The receiver, on the other hand, plays a passive role and receives the information sent by the sender. The listener, although also a passive role, specifically refers to one who listens to the information being communicated through auditory means (such as in a conversation or presentation). The decoder, while an important part of the communication process, is responsible for interpreting and deciphering the encoded message, not necessarily conveying it to the audience. Therefore, option D, the sender, is the most suitable answer to this question.
