Answer 1

Answer: Option B. Can only communicate in response to real-world stimuli

Explanation:

A call system is a form of oral communication system used by some animals such as birds to communicate. Animal call systems are stimuli dependent, which means that an animal can only communicate in response to a real-world stimulus. Most animals make use of sounds, gestures, and movements of the body as call system to communicate. Animal call systems tend to be virtually the same within a species with only minor differences between call systems used in widely separated regions.
