Some bats capture and eat moths while they are
flying. Insect-eating bats hunt using a sophisticated
hearing system like a submarine’s sonar to locate
their prey. This is called echolocation. The bats emit
a high frequency shriek that bounces off objects and
they detect the echo that is returned. This system is
so sophisticated that bats can determine the size of
their prey and its direction.
Looking at a moth under a microscope, you notice that it is covered with
a thick powder. A reference book says that this powder helps the moth
avoid being detected by the bats. You infer this to mean that the powder
would …
A. absorb or scatter the bat’s sound signals
B. make the moth fly slower by increasing air resistance
C. give the moth a bad taste
D. camouflage the moth on trees
