Bottlenose dolphins use echolocation pulses with a frequency of about 100 khz, higher than the frequencies used by most bats. why might you expect these water-dwelling creatures to use higher echolocation frequencies than bats?

a. word bank-b. smallerc. inversed. directe. greater

1. greater

2. direct

3. smaller

4. inverse

Explanation:

The speed of sound in water is greater than in air; hence for the same frequency the sound wavelength in water is greater than in air (for the given frequency the wavelength is in the direct proportion with the speed of sound).

To "see" an object via the echolocation creature needs to use sound with the wavelength smaller than the size of an object viewed.

That means to "see" objects of the same size dolphin and bat need to use ultrasound of the same wavelength, hence dolphin needs to use higher frequency (for the given speed of sound the wavelength is in inverse proportion with the frequency).
