In the basic communication model, what follows after the sender encodes a message?

Chooses medium
Receiver decodes message
Receiver sends a feedback
Sender acknowledges receipt

The correct answer is: Chooses medium

After the sender encodes a message, the next step in the basic communication model is for the sender to choose a medium to transmit the message. This refers to the type of communication channel or method being used, such as speaking in person, sending an email, or writing a letter. It is different from the act of encoding the message, which is the process of turning thoughts or ideas into a message that can be understood by others. The other options are incorrect because they occur after the sender has already chosen a medium, and thus do not fit into the correct sequence of the basic communication model. The receiver decoding the message refers to the process of interpreting or understanding the message, while the receiver sending feedback and the sender acknowledging receipt both happen after the message has been transmitted.
