The concept of "Communication Involves Symbols" refers to the use of verbal and non-verbal codes to convey meaning or definition. This includes language, gestures, facial expressions, and other forms of communication that use symbols to communicate ideas and messages. The other concepts listed - Communication is a Transaction, Communication is a Process, and Communication Involves Co-Construction of Meanings - are all important aspects of communication but do not specifically refer to the use of symbols.
