State the use of echo by a bat, dolphin and fisherman.

Bats make noise, which is reflected back to them by an obstruction. They can locate the barrier by hearing the echo and fly around it securely without hitting with it.

Dolphins identify their opponent and barrier by hearing their echo and producing ultrasonic waves. They use ultrasonic vibrations to pursue their prey.

A fisherman sends and receives an ultrasonic pulse from a source. As a result, anglers employ echoes to catch fish.
