Question
Imagine how it would be to have your eyes in place of your ears? What would you be able to do then, which you cannot do now?
Solution
If there were eyes on the sides of my head, I could see on my left and right without moving my neck.
Some birds, like kites, eagles, vultures can see four times as far as we can. These birds can see things from a distance of eight meters, what we can see from a distance of two meters.
