Immediately following the disaster, emergency personnel likely used specialized vocabulary that made it difficult for townspeople to understand what was being discussed. This is an example of:
Grapevine communication
Noise as a result of jargon
Noise as a result of semantics
Upward communication

Answer

• Noise as a result of semantics
  Explanation:
  The communication was creating noise because of semantics, a type of disturbance that occurs when ambiguous words, sentences or symbols are used in transmission of messages. Uses sentences that carry a meaning to only those who understand the words and symbols used. The emergency personnel can use this to avoid spreading panic to the townspeople during the disaster or emergency situation.
