You are listening to a speech about AIDS and HIV. One of the speaker's main points describes ways to respond to the devastating news that you or someone in your family is HIV Negative. You are confused by this, because you know that HIV Negative means that someone isn't infected with the virus that leads to AIDS. What is happening in this situation?
a. The speaker obviously plagiarized the speech, because he/she doesn¹t know the correct terms
b. The channel of the message is faulty, or else the correct term would be sent and received
c. The internal questioning you have about the word "negative" is a barrier to the communication
d. External noise is keeping the message from being sent and received accurately
