Correct Answer - Option 1 : Silk-worm
Concept:
- Animals have different senses.
- The animal world is full of examples of amazing senses.
Explanation:
Animals and their super senses:
Silkworm:
- Some male insects can recognise their females by their smell.
- Silkworms can find their female worm from many kilometres away by her smell.
Tiger:
-
A tiger can see six times better at night than most of us.
- The tiger’s whiskers are very sensitive and can sense the movements or vibrations in the air.
- A tiger’s sense of hearing is so sharp that it can make out the difference between the rustling of leaves and the sound of an animal moving on the grass.
- The ears of the tiger can move in different directions and this helps to catch the sounds from all around.
- Tigers make different sounds for different purposes like when it is angry or to call out to a tigress. It can also roar or snarl.
- Tigers mark their area with their urine.
- A tiger can at once come to know if there is another tiger in its area by the smell of the urine.
Vulture:
- Vultures can see four times as far as we can.
- These birds can see things from a distance of eight metres what we can see from a distance of two metres.
Hawk:
- Their eyes are forward-facing, which gives them excellent binocular vision.
- Their eyesight is one of the sharpest among all animals.
- Their eyes also allow them to focus quickly as they dive.
Thus, a silkworm can find its female partner many kilometres away just by her smell.
