Echolocation is also called bio sonar. It is the sonar used by several kinds of animals that <span>enables them to locate and discriminate objects by projecting high-frequency sound waves and listening for echoes as the sound waves reflect off objects. </span>
Dolphins and whales make these sounds at any time and at considerable depths. Sounds vary in volume, wavelength, frequency, and pattern.
The wavelength depends on the speed of propagation (c).wavelength=c/f The speed of sound in water is c= 1450 m/s. 
So, for bottlenose delphins the wavelength is:1450m/s /  110.5 kHz
1450 m/s /  110500 Hz =0.013 m = 0.13 mm
For whales  the waveleng42.5 th is:1450m/s /  42.5 kHz = 
1450m/s /  42500 Hz= 0.034 m = 0.34 mm

You can see what animals come from the same 'family' and it will be easy to classify new species.
loris [4]
This statement is true, mainly because it's easy to tell which species are to be classified as what and it would be easy to classify new species by taking characteristics and applying them to already existing species.

Mountain lions are tertiary consumers. how might the removal of mountain lions affect the flow of matter and energy in the rest
Step2247 [10]
The decomposers that use up the lion after it dies would not be able to return the lion's energy back to the earth, therefore cutting off the flow of the pyramid.
