experiments, i would think that scientist would put them in a room and emit sounds at different wave lenghs to see if they respond or if there is a change in their behaviour. but that's just a guess :) also, bats are completely blind and rely on their hearing to navigate. that's where the phrase "blind as a bat" came from.
The same way we do - by using their ears ! Bats use ultra-sonic sound which is higher than the range humans can hear - their 'squeaks' bounce off objects, and prey and are reflected back to the bat so it can navigate in total darkness.
Humans cannot hear ultrasonic sound because our ears are not sensitive enough to detect frequencies above 20,000 Hz, which is the upper limit of human hearing. Ultrasonic sound waves have a frequency higher than 20,000 Hz, making them outside our audible range.
dogs and cats move their ears to hear from where the sound id comming.the ears of cats and dogs are out so when the sound waves hit the outside of the ears it rebounds back into the ears.
Cats, dogs, rabbits...
they only hear ultra sound. they are really big. And im just guessing.
bats can hear ultrasonic sound
yes,ofcourse bats have better hearing then cat because they catch their prey with the help of ultra sonic sound waves while cats cannot hear ultra sonic waves up to the high as a bat does +++ . You can't confuse quality and function like that. All animals (including us) hear as they do, and as well as they need to do, for the life they lead in nature, so have a hearing band-width and sensitivity to suit. Ours is 20Hz - 20kHz, at most; with a maximum useful sound-pressure range of under 100dB re 20µPa. . Of cats and bats, I do not know which of the two animals has the more acute hearing, but I would think it is the cat as it has larger ears even if its frequency range and band-width are lower than the bat's. Yes, the bat has to detect and analyse extremely low sound pressure levels in the echoes of its chirps, when hunting by echo-location, but that does not make it better hearing by frequency. . Acuity, or sensitivity to level, in animals varies with frequency to some extent within each specie's band-width, but level is not a measure of frequency.
While dogs can hear high frequency sounds, BATS may hold the record. They use high frequency sound for navigation.actually there are 2. dolphins and miceBeluga Whaleand bats
Those are ultra sonic planes. There is a sonic boom if it is traveling with sound speed.
Yes. Cats, birds, bats, lions and even humans without ear lobes can hear perfectly well without them.
No, but at 5-6 weeks you can hear it with an early ultra-sound. :)
Cats can hear from 50-odd Hz up to about 80 kHz. :)!!!! hope i answered yall's question! 500 Hz to 32 kHz.
