I propose that the true first-word would have something to do with A. Survival -- a noise to signify danger or fear, for instance...
I think this is on the right track. I'm basing my assumption on that fact I know some animals have specific "danger" calls (blue jays, f'rinstance), but I don't know of any animals that have equivalents of your other two suggestions.
Happy to be corrected, though!
