Explanation

Pull communication is used when a large amount of information must be made available to a large audience, but recipients access it at their own discretion and pace. Intranets, knowledge repositories, and e-learning portals are classic examples - the information is 'pulled' by the recipient when needed. Push communication (A) involves sending information directly to recipients (e.g., emails, memos) without confirming receipt. Interactive communication (C) is two-way and real-time (e.g., meetings, calls). Interpersonal (D) refers to direct one-on-one or small group communication styles, not a distribution method.
