Question

Write a short note on Echolocation of bats.

Answer 1

Echolocation of Bats:

• Bats are not blind. But to fly around and hunt for insects in the dark, they use a remarkable high-frequency system called echolocation.
• Bats give out high-frequency sounds (ultrasonic sounds).
• These sounds are reflected back from its prey and perceived by the ear.

Bats use these echoes to locate and identify the prey.
