The short answer is 10 octaves.
A human with normal hearing (it declines with age) can hear frequencies ranging from 20 to 20,000 hertz. Octaves increase as frequencies double. So for instance is you started at 6,000 Hz, the next octave up would be 12,000 Hz. It takes ten times to double the frequency starting at 20 Hz to get to 20,480 Hz (20,40,80,160, etc.), which is about the highest a normal ear can perceive. Therefore a normal person's hearing spans 10 octaves.
Elephants have a complex network of muscles in their ears, with one of the largest muscles being the aponeurosis auricularis muscle. This muscle is responsible for enabling the elephant to move its ears in various directions to communicate, regulate body temperature, and express emotions.
Yes
The shape of an elephants ears depend on whether the elephant is an African or Asian elephant. African elephants have larger ears that look somewhat like the continent of Africa. Asian elephants have smaller, rounder ears.
There are two types of elephants. There is an African elephant and an Asian elephant. So, there are elephants in Africa and elephants in Asia. You can tell the type of elephant by the size of their ears. African elephants have a large ear while Asian have a smaller ear.
Elephant ears have many uses. First, they are used to hear with. :) Second, they are used to help keep an elephant's body temperature down. Their ears have a lot of blood vessels that carry warm blood from their body to the skin, where the blood is cooled down either by the surface air, or by flapping their ears, or both, and then the cooler blood is returned to the body where it helps cool the animal down. Ears are also used to communicate. Elephants use ear posture to communicate joy, calm, excitement, and warnings to each other and to other animals that they are about to charge. By holding their ears stiffly out from the sides of their heads, they also can make themselves look even larger and more formidable than they already are.
There are two elephant ears on every elephant.
Not sure which one, but the difference between an Asian elephant and an Indian elephant is the ear. One has a smaller ear and the other has a much larger ear.
Elephant.
the ear
because they have ears to hear, and horns to taste.
Well it depends on where its from, but I'd say around 300.
then tell me from ayja sullivan
Well it depends on where its from, but I'd say around 300.
elephants ears are big so they can stay cool by using them as fans when i is very hot.
