Answer 1

Answer: A. limiting nonverbal cues to voice inflections

Step-by-step explanation:

When using oral medium, non verbal cues such as body movement and facial expressions can easily be noticed. It is not necessarily an advantage. Your audience can easily tell if you are uncomfortable responding to certain issues brought up by your voice inflections and mannerisms.

Answer 2

The answer is a.

Step-by-step explanation:

In reality, one of the greatest advantages of in-person oral communication is that it allows us to utilise different nonverbal cues such as body language and gestures. This is, the meaning of the message is not limited to speech. Limiting the cues to voice inflections would only occur in other forms of oral communication such as phone calls.
