The correct answer is that short bursts of high-amplitude interference best describe impulse noise.

Explanation:

Impulse noise is characterized by sudden, short-duration, high-amplitude spikes or bursts of electrical interference. These impulses can be caused by various sources like lightning, switching transients, or faulty electrical contacts.

Additional Information

  • Noise caused by temperature fluctuations refers to thermal noise, which is random and continuous.
  • Continuous low-frequency noise might describe flicker noise or other forms of continuous background noise.
  • Gradual signal degradation over time refers to issues like attenuation or component aging, not a type of noise.
