Question

Which of the following is NOT necessarily part of the process of listening? Group of answer choices

a.The receiver responds with a return message
b.The brain assigns meanings to the stimuli
c.The stimuli are picked up by the ear
d.The nerves transmit sensations to the brain

Answer 1

The correct answer is A. The receiver responds with a return message

Step-by-step explanation:

In the listening process, the last step is to answer with a return message which occurs after sounds are detected by the ear, the information has been transmitted to the brain and the brain assigns meaning. However, this last step is not necessary or possible in all the cases, for example when we listen to an advertisement on television or radio in most cases we do not respond although we understand and analyze the information we heard. Thus, the one that is not necessarily part of the process of listening is "the receiver responds with a return message".

Answer 2

a.The receiver responds with a return message.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the sound reaches the ear the stimuli are picked up by the ears then the this sensation is reached to the brain through the nerves, then the brain assigns the meaning to the stimuli.This is what a listening process. So when the receiver responds with a return message is not a part of the process.
