उत्तर
Bats make a series of twittering sound, so high pitched that human ear can not hear. These sound waves strike against the obstacles less in their path of flight and send back echoes to the bat’s ear. The echoes tell the bats, how they must turn in the air to avoid colliding with the obstacles or with one another.
