In communication, which term is defined as providing information to others?

• A. Informing
• B. Intrinsic reward
• C. Expressing imagination
• D. Reconstructive listening

Answer: (A)

Providing information to others is informing. It’s the act of sharing facts, data, or explanations to increase someone’s knowledge or understanding. This is the core purpose of informing in many communication situations, like giving instructions, presenting evidence, or teaching a concept. The other options don’t fit because intrinsic reward describes personal satisfaction from doing something, not the act of conveying information; expressing imagination is about creativity and sharing imaginative ideas; and reconstructive listening is a listening approach focused on interpreting and reconstructing a message, not on delivering information to others.
