Answer: It may be triggered by visual or chemical stimuli

Step-by-step explanation:

Imprinting in pyschobiology is a phenomena of learning in animals. In this the young animals are exposed to one object or stimulus that can be visual, tactile, auditory and later on experience the other object or stimulus. This is tested on some birds such as chickens, geese, ducks also in some fishes, mammals and insects.
