Dolphins rely on echolocation for survival, using sound to navigate and communicate in water. Sound travels faster in water than light, making it crucial for marine mammals. Dolphins produce sounds through air sacs and the melon, creating whistles and echolocation clicks. These sounds help them interpret their environment and locate prey. Echolocation involves sound waves reflecting off objects, with echoes received through the jaw and processed by the brain. Sound is vital for dolphins' complex social interactions and adaptation to their marine habitat.
