They don't actually "see" using sound, but yes, they use a sonar-like ability called echolocation to determine distance from objects. They emit ultrasonic sound that only they can hear. When the sound hits an object such, it bounces back and the bat can determine the distance and direction to the object. Also, contrary to popular belief, bats are not blind. They have eyes and limited vision. They primarily use their vision to travel long distances.
What else can I help you with?
Why are bats able to see in complete darkness?
u will be surprised to know that bats do not use their eyes when they fly in darkness. A bat makes a sound continuously while it flies. The sound waves strike the nearby objects
Can sharks see underwater?
sharks cant see underwter however, sharks use this kind of sound wave to see just like bats. they have to be able to see under water.
Do bats see?
no bats don't see. they use sound and when the vibrations of the noise jump off an object then the bats know to avoid it.
What is the power of a bats' hearing?
They have super sonic hearing, they actually are blind and use their sound to make echos through caves to be able to see. Hope that answers your question!!:)
What animal see with its ears?
It's not entirely true, but bats can "see" by echo location - using sound and hearing as radar.
How do bats use sound to help them see?
Bats use sound to help see in the dark (don't forget bats are blind) by using something called echolocation. echolocation is were the bats make noises and the noise waves bounce back giving the bat an idea of its surrounding.However when the bat finds prey its sound changes. The sound the bat makes when getting pray is a clicking sound which gets faster and faster as it gets closer.Echolocation is like that of a submarine's radar.Another animal which uses this exact same method is the dolphin.
Are bats blind?
no not all bats are blind ... .... .... new answer .... OK no all bats are able to see the reason they use sonar is because that they see the same way humans do... they use cones and rods in their eyes, which can't see at night, so there fore... bats are not blind they are more able to see than we are. They are just nocturnal so that they are only out during the night. And thus bats cant see at night even though they can see perfectly normal.No they are not blind, but they have little need to use their eyes to know where to fly. Bats can 'hear' their surroundings by sonar and therefore can 'see' at night.
What property of waves do bats rely on?
Bats rely on the property of echolocation in waves to navigate and locate prey. They emit high-frequency sound waves that bounce off objects and return as echoes, allowing bats to perceive their surroundings in the dark. This helps them "see" by using sound instead of light.
What sound waves help Bats to sense obstacles?
Bats use high-frequency sound waves, called echolocation, to sense obstacles in their environment. They emit these sound waves which bounce off objects, allowing the bat to receive and interpret the echoes to navigate and locate prey.

Does able have a long or short vowel sound?
The word able has a long A (ay) sound. The E is unstressed (schwa sound).
Where can you get sound effects for a bus crash?
There are many specialists on line who are able to supply sound effects of all types. See link below for one example.
