Answer 1

The correct option is D Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct.

Advertising is the process of letting the public know about a product and influencing them to buy the product. Since advertisements use mass media communication like newspapers, television, etc, they reach a wide group of people. However, advertisements do not connect with all people and hence, they might not be effective in personally connecting with people.
