Default Exhaust System Questions

I have a question about Exhaust Systems in Cars. I'm trying to learn about cars the best I can.

If you take out the resonator from a exhaust system, will it make a louder sound from the internal combustion engine? Is it possible to take out a resonator or is it needed in the Exhaust System. Do people usually take it out? If you take it out, does it create back pressure within the Exhaust System?

I'm Learning about the in's and outs of Cars, so these curious questions come up from study. If they are stupid questions, just answer them anyways. Im trying to learn the most about cars so the possibilities of becoming a auto mechanic would be one of my choice of careers when the time arrives.

There is no point in taking it off, resonators dont create back pressure just help quiet down the exhaust and take away some rasspyness. If you are looking for a performance gain then you should get a high flow cat and catback. Is that why you are asking? What type of vehicle?
