A bat is not blind, but it flies in the evening, and lives in a dark cave. So it needs echo location to find it's way around and catch insects.
Bats use echo location, they track down sounds of prey by their sound waves.
a bat does
A bat uses echo location to see where it is going, a bat can see through its eyes, but it uses echo location.
echo location The bat emits a squeak, which when it reflects (echo) off an object (prey) the bat can hear that and fly to it.
echo location is where you can hear from faraway in a certain location
Not unless you're a bat
Echo location is when a whale or a bat screeches or moans and if another sound comes back something is coming towards it or if the same sound bounces back something is in its way.
------------------------------------------------------- Bats use a type of "sonar" to locate objects even in the dark (echo-location). A bat makes a high-pitched noise that bounces off objects nearby and the bat hears the echo. By timing how long it takes for the bat to hear the echo, it can calculate how far away it is. When it comes to a flying insect, the bat listens to the echo of it's noises and is able to locate where an insect is. Then it can fly to the insect and catch it - even if it is pitch dark. They use echo location. It is tiny beeps, too high pitched for our ears, and dogs ears too! The bats let out the tiny beeps, and the echoes tell them where bugs are.
No, except that the Egyptian Fruit Bat uses high pitch clicking in caves.
yes, echo location works no matter what time of day it is. the term, "blind as a bat," refers to the fact that, even though bats are not blind, they rely more on their sense of hearing than their eyesight to "see" where they are flying at night.
Sonar location is in the water and echo location is in the air.
echo location tells them where things are.
