Answer 1

Similarities

Verbal communication and non verbal communication both refers to the exchange or conveying information to others.They both are used one along with other while communicating. It forms a better communication when both the methods are used while communicating to others.They can make others understand easily by using the simplest sense of seeing and hearing when one speaks ate gestures.They both are interlinked the efficiency can decrease when either one is used.For instance if an employer is angry on his staff and fires his employee with expression on face can make the employee feel lighter than feeling the anxiety of the period

Differences

In verbal communication words are exchanged .Here the hypoglossal nerve is stimulated making to stimulate the vestibulocochlear nerve and the conversation is heard.In case of non verbal communication only the occulomotor nerve functions and the communication is just seen .In non verbal communication it cannot happen without physical presence but the verbal communication can exist even in the physical absence like using a telephone to converse. Verbal communication cannot be reached effectively if conveyed from a greater distance. Non verbal communication can take place even at a very great distance between two person or group.Npn verbal communication is used in excess when compared to non verbal communication.
