rewatch skip

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• "language" generally encompasses verbal communication, so it doesn't fit the description of acting on verbal messages in the ways listed.
• "nonverbal communication" (like body language, facial expressions, etc.) is known to complement, reinforce, emphasize, replace, or contradict verbal messages. For example, crossing arms (nonverbal) can contradict a verbal statement of being open.
• "sign language" is a type of language (often nonverbal in the sense of not spoken, but it's a structured language system) and is more about conveying messages rather than acting on verbal messages in the described manner.

Answer:

B. nonverbal communication
