Why dont birds tip over when they sit on telephone wires?
birds have special tendons that allow them lock around the perch. With tendons located behind their ankle and in front of their knee, they weight of their body stretches the tendons so they lock around the perch
How come birds on electric wires dont get electrocuted?
Birds typically don't get electrocuted on electric wires because they are not grounded and do not create a path for electricity to flow through them. Additionally, most power lines are insulated, reducing the risk of electric shock. Birds also have a higher threshold for electric shock due to their lower body mass.
How does a perch reproduce?
Obviously, there are two types of perch. These are the fish types or the type that birds sit on.So i will tell you about both types. 1) Perch (the fish type)!- Perches move in exactly the same way as most fishes. 2) Perch (the weird wooden type)!- These types dont move at all. Unless a bird is dancing on it!
Why do birds sit together on telephone lines?
For a start, most telephone wires are insulated and carry little or no electricity so, apart from falling off and hurting themselves, they won't get hurt on telephone wires. Really, you should have asked about why birds don't get hurt on overhead electrical wires. The answer is fairly simple really - to get electrocuted from those wires you need to complete the circuit, in this case touch the ground, for the electricity to surge through the body. Birds only sit on the wire and do not touch the ground, so they can't be electrocuted.
Do perch blink?
No, perch do not blink, humans have to blink to give mosture (a little bit of water) to thier eyes, but perch practicly live in mosture, so therefore they do not need to blink so they dont, that is the same with all fish.
Do people bleed when you get electrocuted?
=No i dont think that your body would drae blood. However you mite get a cut.=
Why it is dangerous that we insert things into a electrical socket?
Eletric sockets are dangerous because they contain high voltage from power houses around your town,city. Now to keep safe of electric sockets remember these things: Dont pull it out from a distance because you can break or bend the cord. Don't put water near it never do games or run on carpets around it then touch it. Dont touch it towards power outes
How come birds on electric wires dont get electroucuted?
Birds are not grounded when they perch on electric wires, so there is no closed circuit for electricity to flow through their bodies. Additionally, birds do not typically touch two wires with different electrical potentials simultaneously, which would be necessary to complete a circuit and receive an electric shock.
