This process can be a private affair or involve the participation of multiple receivers, creating an audience. A signal is the information that is sent from sender to receiver and can be either an act or a structure that manipulates the behavior of the receiver. In order for the signal to be maintained in the population, the receiver should also receive some benefit from the interaction. Both the production of the signal from the sender and the perception and subsequent response from the receiver need to coevolve. It is important to study both the sender and receiver of the interaction, since the maintenance and persistence of the signal is dependent on the ability to both produce and recognize the signal.The study of animal communication has played an important part in animal behavior, sociobiology, neurobiology, and animal cognition. Animal communication is a rapidly growing area of study. Even in the 21st century, many prior understandings related to diverse fields such as personal symbolic name use, animal emotions, learning and animal sexual behavior, long thought to be well understood, have been revolutionized.The multiple mechanisms and modes of communication are provided in detail in the following sections of the page and include: visual, auditory, olfactory, electrical, chemical, and tactile communication. Furthermore, in many taxa, signals are comprised of multiple mechanisms, described as multimodal signaling, and should not be ignored.. }
