Correct Answer: Cultural differences
 


Solution : The correct answer is (b) Cultural differences.

Cultural differences are an external barrier to communication. When individuals from different cultures interact, variations in language, communication styles, customs, and values can create misunderstandings and hinder effective communication. Cultural sensitivity and awareness are crucial for overcoming this barrier. Cultural differences can impact communication by introducing variations in language, communication styles, and cultural norms, requiring individuals to navigate and adapt to different cultural contexts to ensure effective communication.
