Explanation

Grapevine refers to informal communication networks that exist alongside formal communication channels in organizations. It's called 'grapevine' because information spreads like vines in a grapevine - unofficially and rapidly. Formal communication (A) follows the official chain of command, while grapevine operates through social relationships and personal connections.
