The learning of this behavior sees increased interneuron production in area X, and this behavior is usally accompanied by an increase in synapsin and ZENK expression in the basal ganglia. The main circuits involved in this behavior are centered on the HVC and Robust Nucleus of the Archistratum, while its acquisition requires the LMAN and DLM. Organisms can be classified as closed-ended or open-ended based on their ability to acquire this behavior, and its acquisition goes through a sensory phase, followed by sensorimotor and crystallization phases. Participation of the lateral labiae of the syrinx allows for the precise production of "sexy syllables" during mating displays involving this behavior, while other instances may involve antiphona

Participation of the lateral labiae of the syrinx allows for the precise production of "sexy syllables" during mating displays involving this behavior, while other instances may involve antiphonal duets or vocal mimicking. For 10 points, name this behavior used to signal alarm, mating, and territoriality by avians, which to humans just sounds like chirping.
