In insects, they serve functions such as alerting to danger and guiding to food, while honeybee queens use them to influence worker behavior. Pheromones can also disrupt mating in pest management. In mammals, they signal territory and prepare mating systems, with human pheromones potentially synchronizing menstrual cycles among cohabiting women, affecting hormonal changes subconsciously.

It describes innate behaviors such as taxes and reflexes, and learned behaviors developed through experience. Genetic factors also play a role, as seen in the behavior of Drosophila larvae and honeybees.
