Do animals use refraction?
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
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.
Does refraction take place in opaque objects?
Refraction is the phenomenon which allows light to pass from one medium into the other. But opaque object will not allow light to pass through. So refraction becomes impossible in case of opaque objects.
How does refraction affect the appearance of the sky?
The sky is blue because of refraction. Sunsets and sunrise are so beautiful because of refraction. If there was no refraction, we would see the sky as a black expanse.
How do the principle's of physic's help the way animals see the world?
WELL! Scientist can compare the structure of the eye, to that of a camera. And just like that of a camera, the eye uses a lens to focus to light to form an image. But all animals see differently but work in similar ways
What is a good link to see pictures of light refraction?
A good place to see pictures of light refraction is on Google Images or science websites such as National Geographic or ScienceDaily. You can search for "light refraction" or "photos of light refraction" to find a variety of images showcasing this phenomenon.
How does refraction affect the way you see things?
learn
How does refraction allow you to see?
The refraction of light by the cornea and lens of the eye makes it possible for an image to form on the retina. Without the formation of an image, it would be possible for the retina to detect the presence or absence of light, but not shapes or objects.
Why there should be a zoo?
Zoos allow children the opportunity to learn about animals that they normally wouldn't be able to see. Zoos can also rescue animals from the wild and rehabilitate them.
What has to be different to allow refraction to occur?
Refraction occurs when light passes between materials of different optical densities, causing a change in its speed and direction. The change in speed must be coupled with a change in direction to enable refraction to occur.
Can you log on and see the animals in the zoo from the internet?
There are many zoos around the world that allow internet users to log on to their sites and view the animals and other zoo operations.
Does a periscope use an refraction?
Yes, a periscope uses reflection, not refraction, of light to allow an observer to see objects that are not in their direct line of sight. Light enters through one end of the periscope, reflects off a series of mirrors or prisms, and exits through the other end to provide an observation at a higher or lower vantage point.
