Discussion
Statement (A) : Information is a source of economic and political progress.
Statement (B) : The transmission of information may be disturbed by some external noise.
Answer: C
Both (A) and (B) are true.
Statement A: information is a basic resource of modern societies. Access to information supports economic growth, innovation and informed political participation, which is why we speak of an information society and an information economy.
Statement B: in the Shannon-Weaver model of communication a message passes from source through a channel to a receiver, and noise, any external disturbance in the channel, can distort or interrupt it.
Since both statements are standard propositions of information science, the options calling either one false are wrong.
