Answer:

Option a

Step-by-step explanation:

As per Elliot's scenario, Elliot is not able to process effectively the Professor presentation due to his fast and simultaneous flip of slides in the presentation.

Thus Elliot is not able to centralize his energy and this results from message overload, where one receives messages more than he can process.

This is one of the listening obstacles.
