Communication and Pheromones

Video not yet published

State

Animal communication transmits information between a signaler and a receiver, often through a pheromone, a chemical released to trigger a response in another individual of the same species.

Show

A foraging ant lays a pheromone trail other ants follow directly to a food source.

Watch for

A pheromone signals within a species — a chemical cue read by a different species is not a pheromone.
