How are bats and dolphins like sonars?

I think it's because Dolphins speak (squeaks, singing, whatever you want to call it) out and it will rebound off of other animals/dolpins to see how close they are or how close the enemy is, whatever it wants to know. And this is the same with a bat - it uses its sonar to reflect off of the other bats or animals. This is called echolocation.


Do bats shoot sonar waves from their mouth?

Yes - they use their vocal cords to emit high frequency squeaks' - which bounce off nearby objects, and return to the animals ears. The system is so accurate, bats can pluck trapped insects from spider-webs in total darkness !


Why bats can locate objects in dark?

They use ultrasound. They emit high-pitched 'squeaks' which are reflected off objects close to them - and the sound is picked up by their ears. The minute differences in the sound volume in each ear - tells the bat where the object is.


Measures distance by emitting high pitched squeaks?

The animal that measures distance by emitting high-pitched squeaks is a bat. They use echolocation, bouncing sound waves off objects to determine their location and navigate in the dark.


How Do Bats Hear Sound?

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.


How do bats identify objects?

Bats use echolocation to identify objects. They emit high-frequency sound waves, which bounce off objects and return to the bat, allowing them to determine the object's size, shape, distance, and texture based on the echoes they receive. This helps bats navigate and locate prey in the dark.


Can bats fly around in the total darkness of caves without flying into walls?

yes they use echolocation to not bump into walls. they send out high frequency sounds so that bounce back off of the walls and they sense that. that is how they know if a wall is in front of them, so they dont bump into them.


What is the process in which objects are located by emitting sounds and interpreting sound waves that are reflected back?

It is echolocation because just like dolphin the send high pitched squeaks to see if anything bounces off and relects back to see how far away it is. The high pitched squeakes off boats bounce off the ocean floor to see how deep it is.


How does a dolphin make a conversation with another dolphin?

Dolphins have a highly intelligent language of squeaks and squeals. They communicate with each other to warn each other of danger or to simply tell them where there are lots of fish! I hope this helps!

How do you fix squeak Elliptical?

Usually general maintenance of the machine will fix and prevent squeaks. An elliptical usually squeaks due to a lack of lubricant ( it does dry out over time), dust or dirt getting into the gears and joints, or a part is broken and causing two parts to rub against each other that shouldn't be.
