Can you hear high pitched or lower pitched sounds better underwater?
high pitched better not
Can you hear infrasound?
Humans are able to hear infrasound, depending upon frequency and amplitude.
Why you can hear sounds better in air then you can underwater?
Sound moves faster and further in water than air, so it would seem like it must have something to do with the receiver. I'm guessing, but I'd guess it's because the eardrum evolved to hear sounds in air. Underwater you don't hear using the eardrum, you hear by way of bone conduction which apparently doesn't let you hear normal sounds as well as the air/eardrum method.
Which frequency do humans hear the best?
3.15 khz
What is the lowest frequency for humans?
Assuming you mean the lowest frequency humans can hear, that's about 20 Hz.
Why can't you hear underwater?
Sound waves accessible by humans are attenuated in water.

Why do divers hear better under water?
Sound travels faster underwater, but this does not mean that divers hear better underwater. It just means that the sound is heard more quickly.
Do humans hear everything animals hear?
No. It is scientifically proved that certain animals hear more than humans. Many animals have a higher range of sounds they can hear but humans cannot. Dogs for example, can hear sounds as high as 60,000 Hz while the human range is within 20,000Hz. Lower base ranges 20 to 80 Hz are felt more than heard in many animals so while they will react, it is more fright and flight than recognition of specific sound.This is why animals can hear things like dog whistles, and we can't hear them, or if you do it is really hard to hear them. In all, animals can hear differently than humans in the way that they can hear more.
Where are worms ears?
I'm pretty sure worms don't have ears. They don't really need ears since they spend time underwater or in the ground where its hard to hear anything.
How high can humans hear?
Generally speaking humans can hear from 20-20,000 Hz.
What is the range of frequency that humans can hear?
the range of sound frequencies that humans can hear is about0to200Hz
Can somebody be made to breathe underwater?
Of course not. Humans are only able to breathe underwater for a few seconds.
Can your ear drum function underwater?
This is the same as asking if you can hear under water and yes, you can hear under water.
