Case study: Bats

Science

Case study: Bats

Bats are nocturnal animals. They can live in different environments but they need a place to roost.
The roost is the place where they spend the day and where they hibernate. You can find bat
roosts in caves, trees and inside empty buildings.
Most bats eat insects. A bat is able to eat one-third of its body weight in insects every night.
This means it eats several hundred insects in a few hours.
Some bats eat fruit. Vampire bats feed on blood.
Bats hunt for food at night. This means there is less competition for food since other animals
that eat insects or fruit hunt during the day.
Bats use sound to fly safely and find their prey. They make very high-pitched sounds which
humans cannot hear.
The main predators of bats are falcons and hawks.
Bats have light bones with webbing between which allows them to fly. They sleep upside down
and fold their wings to cover themselves.
In late autumn it gets colder and there are no longer insects and fruit for the bats to eat.
At this time of year bats look for a suitable place to hibernate. They often migrate long distances
to find the right place. The bats hibernate for up to six months. Their body functions slow down
so much that some bats only take one breath every two hours! They hibernate in groups with
many bats holding on to each other. This huddling behaviour helps to keep the bats warm.
Sometimes there are a million bats in one big cave.

Divisibility rule

Mathematics

Rules for Divisibility

Divisibility by 2: A number is divisible by 2 when the digit at ones place is 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8. еg, 3582, 460, 28, 352.....

Divisibility by 3: A number is divisible by 3 when sum of all digits of a number is a multiple of 3.

eg, 453 4+5+3=12.

12 is divisible by 3 so, 453 is also divisible by 3.

Divisibility by 4: A number is divisible by 4, if the number formed with its last two digits is divisible by 4.

eg, if we take the number 45024, the last two digits form 24. Since, the number 24 is divisible by 4, the number 45024 is also divisible by 4

Divisibility by 5: A number is divisible by 5 if its last digit is 0 or 5. eg: 10, 25, 60

Divisibility by 6: A number is divisible by 6, if it is divisible both by 2 and 3. eg. 48, 24, 108

Divisibility by 7: A number is divisible by 7 when the difference between twice the digit at ones place and the number formed by other digits is either zero or a multiple of 7.

eg. 658 65-2×8=65-16=49. As 49 is divisible by 7 the number 658 is also divisible by 7.

Divisibility by 8: A number is divisible by 8, if the number formed by the last 3 digits of the number is divisible by 8.

eg. if we take the number 57832, the last three digits form 832. Since, the number 832 is divisible by 8, the number 57832 is also divisible by 8.

Divisibility by 9: A number is divisible by 9, if the sum of all the digits of a number is a multiple of 9.eg, 684=6+8+4=18.18 is divisible by 9 so, 684 is also divisible 9.

Divisibility by 10: A number is divisible by 10, if its last digit is 0. eg. 20,180, 350,.....

Divisibility by 11: When the difference between the sum of its digits in odd places and in even places is either 0 or a multiple of 11.

eg, 30426

3+4+6=13

0+2=2

13-2=11

As the difference is a multiple of 11 the number 30426 is also divisible by 11.
