In general, the process refraction only occurs in the eyes (as far as I know). So I assume you are asking how animals use refraction in their eyes, and by "refraction" you mean the refraction of light. In general, when light enters the eyes, it first enters the cornea of the eyes, which is then refracted into the pupil through the aqueous humor. The thickness and convexity of the lens control how the light is refracted into the eye. The light is focused on the retina which has rods and cone (photoreceptors/light sensors) which sends nerve impulses to the brain. Therefore, the animal is able to see. The parts of the eyes that does the refraction are the cornea, aqueous humor, lens, and the vitreous humor. You might want to surf the web for more details about this

How do you use refraction in endoscopy?
gay
How would you use refraction in a sentence?
The location of the fish in the water is not where it seems to be, due to the refraction of light in the water.
How do you use refraction to see?
refrection unit rate
Application of refraction in physics?
One interesting application is the use of lenses, for example in telescopes and microscopes. Lenses use refraction to concentrate light.Another application is the use of radio waves for communication. Radio waves are often said to be reflected back from the upper atmosphere, but I understand that this is not really reflection, but refraction.
How do you use the word refract in a sentence?
The bevel of the window made the light refract into a rainbow.
What animals use light refraction?
bats and dolphins use sound refraction to hunt for food. the bat is blind so they have to use sound refraction.

When is refraction used for in a play or how could you use refraction in a theatrical production?
Its used when the light is transmitted out of the light source.. Genius
What is mathematical refraction?
Mathematical refraction is when we use the mathematical formula to calculate the velocity of light as it passes from one medium to another.

When the mineral uvarovite has an index of refraction of 1.86. calculate the speed of light in this sample of uvarovite?
Use the definition of "index of refraction". In this case, you simply need to divide the speed of light in a vacuum by the index of refraction.
What principle of light a magnifying glass make use of?
The refraction.
