Answer 1

The correct answer to this question is D) When on a television, National milk council is giving a message to the public, to drink milk , that would be called advertising.

Step-by-step explanation:

Advertisement can be defined as a form of communication, where the main objective is to try influencing the behavior of target consumers. Here a product or service is being brought in to the attention of target consumers, so that consumers can be urged to buy that product or service. A producer develops a message here and places that message to the consumer ( in this question through TV done by national milk council ), with the intention of persuading the consumers to buy that product or service.
