    Provide examples of signaling in nature and explain their purpose.

    <p>Examples include actions by organisms to alert others, such as the release of plant chemicals to warn nearby plants of a predator, or sounds/motions made by animals to alert others of food.</p> Signup and view all the answers

    How does signaling theory relate to the concept of evolution, and what role does it attribute to the ability of animals to communicate?

    <p>Signaling theory suggests that the ability of animals to communicate through signaling is a significant driver for evolution, as it allows for the development of ways to communicate and adapt to environmental challenges.</p> Signup and view all the answers
