Firstly, water is a basic neccesity of life for all organisms.
Where there are waterfalls there will also be sourrounding vegetation and a wide range of biodiverse communities.
It would be extremely helpful for animals to be able to detect waterfalls as they would know were a constant source of water is.
Herbivores would find vegetation
Carnivores/onmivores would find prey as other animals would congregate there
Animals would find mates for breeding
These are all essencial for healthy ecosystems
One advantage of using infrasound is its ability to penetrate obstacles such as walls and dense foliage, making it useful for long-range communication or monitoring purposes. Infrasound can also travel further distances than audible sound waves, which can be advantageous for detecting events or phenomena over large areas.
Humans use infrasound for various purposes such as detecting earthquakes, monitoring volcanic activity, and studying wildlife behavior. Infrasound is also utilized in communication systems and for medical imaging. Some studies suggest that exposure to certain infrasound frequencies may have physiological effects on humans.
Infrasounds have longer wavelengths that can travel greater distances and penetrate obstacles, allowing them to detect volcanic eruptions from further away and through the ground. Additionally, infrasounds can detect eruptions even when visibility is poor or when the eruption is not visually observable.
Yes, there are devices called infrasound detectors that can measure low-frequency infrasound waves. These detectors typically use specialized sensors to capture infrasound signals and can be used in various applications such as monitoring seismic activity, detecting natural disasters, or studying animal behavior.
Infra-sound signals are sound waves below 20 Hz. These cannot be sensed by the human ear, but the main advantage of this is that it can travel long distances without distortion. Hence animals like elephants use infra-sounds for communicating with other members of their species that might be wandering far apart.

No, infrasound is the frequency of sound that is too low for humans to hear, below 20 hertz, but is used for communicating by elephants and other animals. Echolocation is normally ultrasound, the frequency above our hearing range, higher than 20,000 hertz, and is used by bats and dolphins in echolocation.
It's a useful instrument for detecting weather. It measures air pressure.
A PET scan would be most useful for detecting brain areas that are most active as a person performs mathematical calculations.
though curiously, our brains do contain magnetite, the mineral thought to aid other animals' brains in detecting the field.)
No- in fact, it is used in devices to control the behaviour of dogs and other animals with hearing that goes above human pitch. However, there are a few people with-hyper-sensitive hearing who can actually pick up infrasound, if not as an actual noise then as uncomfortable vibrations.
