Match each communication example with its channel or role.
Answer
Pheromones in urine - Chemical communication detected by smell, Cow-to-cow mounting observed by a bull - Visual cue, Distress call - Acoustic communication, Touch - Tactile communication
Explanation
Each pairing follows the communication channel described in the material. Urinary pheromones provide chemical information detected through smell; observed mounting provides visual information; distress calls are sounds and therefore acoustic; and touch is tactile communication.\n\n**Key takeaway:** Identify a communication channel by the sensory information carrying the message.\n\n**Glossary:** **Acoustic**: Sound-based; **tactile**: Touch-based; **chemical communication**: Signaling through chemical substances.
