Answer:

Three

Explanation:

Signs can be classified in three categories: icon, index and symbol. An icon is a physical resemblance to the thing being represented (ex. a drawing of a file to indicate "files"). An index, on the other hand, is a sign that shows evidence of the thing being represented (ex. the drawing of smoke to represent fire). Finally, a symbol relies on a connection that must be culturally learned, as there is no resemblance between signifier and signified (ex. the numbers and letters).

Answer: 2. When the room is clear, let's get organized and plan the meeting.

Explanation: If you analize both options, on the first option: "1.
