Answer:

O The sound waves are reflected.

Step-by-step explanation:

When sound waves released by a bat hits an object, the sound waves are reflected back.

Bats used sound reflection for echolocation to determine the position of nearby objects.

Also, they use it to determine the shape and size of objects.

  • The mechanism where bats use sound to determine location is known as echolocation.
  • The bat picks up the reflected sound and projects the location of their targets.
