OK I got your point.BUT another confusion.can more than one symbol be inserted in the transmitted word?

Any (but only one) symbol 0 is replaced by 1.
Any (but only one) symbol is removed.
A symbol (0 or 1) is inserted at any position. ......(but only one) is missing here in this statement

Such use of indefinite article "A" implies "one".
so, no, only one symbol is inserted.
