Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Communication is established when there is one person or more who have an idea to communicate, and a person or more who listen to it. If the idea isn't clearly explained, or understood, there isn't communication, because the listener wouldn't understand what the speaker says, and to foster the understanding, it's often necessary to negotiate a shared meaning.
