For communication. Higher or more advanced lifeforms need to be able to communicate with each other and other species for a wide range of activities - mating, feeding, territory, dominance. Sound is just one way of communicating. Creatures that don't use sound, like plants, haven't discovered any evolutionary benefit to using sound.
Sound can impact animals in various ways depending on the type and volume of the sound. Loud noises can startle or stress animals, affecting their behavior, communication, and reproduction. Noise pollution can disrupt natural habitats and lead to decreased foraging, breeding success, and overall health in animals. Some species have adapted to certain sounds for communication or navigation purposes.
Creatures like dolphins and bats have a special sonar ( or echolocation) ability that when it hits an object, the sound waves will bounce back and hit the animal that made the sound and reveals the shape/size of the creature or rock(etc.) that it hit. Humans do not have this power because the sounds/noises we produce are not high/low enough to do the same thing.

How does the pitch of a sound affect its speed?
The pitch of a sound, which is determined by its frequency, does not affect its speed. The speed of sound in air at room temperature is roughly 343 meters per second. This speed is independent of the pitch of the sound wave.

Cows are animals that make a "moo" sound.
What three things affect the frequency of a sound wave?
The three things that affect the frequency of a sound wave are the source of the sound (vibration frequency), the medium through which the sound wave is traveling (speed of sound in the medium), and the relative motion between the source of the sound and the observer (Doppler effect).

Does techno music affect animals?
this question is very indirect, but here are some brief suggestions. techno music represents sound waves, which affect all matter in calculable ways. animals consist of matter, so yes; it does affect animals. If you mean behaviorally, the electrical transduction of neurons by sound affects the behavior of neural processes which, under the brain-body paradigm, must affect their observable behaviors directly; you need to know what to look for though. As humans are animals, one conscious effect of techno music, or indeed any music, that you may have noticed might be moving themselves to the beat. This is one commonly observable affect of techno music on humans. I don't know if there are any other animals that dance to music.
