How does messages travel from sender to its receiver?

Messages travel from sender to receiver through a series of steps involving encoding, transmission, and decoding. The sender encodes the message into a suitable format (such as text, audio, or video) and sends it through a chosen medium (like email, phone, or social media). The message then travels through various networks, including the internet or cellular networks, until it reaches the receiver. Finally, the receiver decodes the message, interpreting it back into understandable information.
