WEBMar 18, 2021 · This new finding indicates that the electric eel discharge behavior and physiology and the evolutionary purpose of the three electric organs are more complex than previously assumed.WEBDec 14, 2017 · Here we introduce an electric-eel-inspired power concept that uses gradients of ions between miniature polyacrylamide hydrogel compartments bounded by a repeating sequence of cation- and...WEBSep 10, 2019 · We document hidden species-level diversity in the electric eel illustrating how widespread conspicuous species (over 2 m in total length) can go overlooked even in a long-known model organism...WEBJan 14, 2021 · We report the unexpected social predation by electric eels, an otherwise solitary predator in the Amazon rainforest. Observations made in different years and recorded on video show electric eels herding, encircling shoals of small nektonic fishes, and launching joint predatory high-voltage strikes on the prey ball.WEBMay 14, 2021 · Electrophorus electricus, more commonly referred to as the electric eel, is the only large, freshwater, electrogenic fish species belonging to the order Gymnotiformes that is both electroreceptive and capable of generating both …WEBDec 4, 2023 · This study offers evidence supporting the idea that electric discharge from electric eels can enhance DNA transformation in zebrafish larvae. Our innovative approach, utilizing live animals as the source of electric discharges, suggests the potential for such discharges to contribute to gene transfer in natural environments.WEBJun 18, 2020 · In this article, the concept of evolution inspired us to compare the actual electric current produced by the eel with all the values of electric current possible by changing the matrix combination of the cells (in particular, the maximum current possible) for the given total number of cells.WEBDec 5, 2014 · Electric eels can deliver a shock powerful enough to immobilize a horse, but their true targets are smaller fish and invertebrate prey. Now, Catania suggests that electric eels “remotely control” their prey's movements.WEBFeb 25, 2023 · Central to this review is the recent progress of electric-eel-inspired innovations and applications for energy storage and conversion, particularly including novel power sources, triboelectric nanogenerators, and nanochannel ion-selective membranes for salinity gradient energy harvesting.WEBJan 14, 2021 · Deep in the Brazilian Amazon, researchers have found that electric eels can work together to rustle up a meal ― not unlike wolves or killer whales do.WEBMar 18, 2021 · The electric eel is a unique species that has evolved three electric organs. Since the 1950s, electric eels have generally been assumed to use these three organs to generate two forms of electric organ discharge (EOD): high-voltage EOD for predation and defense and low-voltage EOD for electrolocation and communication.WEBMar 1, 2015 · This study elucidates how the electric eel uses its electric organ to draw out, detect and incapacitate its prey. Furthermore, it comprehensively shows that we should be grateful we're not small fish in the Amazonian basin.WEBOct 28, 2015 · The electric eel (Electrophorus electricus) stands out as a formidable predator by virtue of its uncommon electrical weaponry and unique hunting strategies. When they strike, electric eels generate hundreds of volts of electricity, delivered in 1 ms pulses, at rates that approach 500 HzWEBSep 10, 2019 · We document hidden species-level diversity in the electric eel illustrating how widespread conspicuous species (over 2 m in total length) can go overlooked even in a long-known model organism from one of Earth’s biodiversity hotspots.WEBDec 5, 2005 · The electric eel generates large electric currents by way of a highly specialized nervous system that has the capacity to synchronize the activity of disc-shaped, electricity-producing cells ...WEBJul 16, 2019 · For self-defense, electric eels leap from the water to directly electrify threats, efficiently activating nociceptors to deter their target. The latter behavior supports a legendary account by Alexander von Humboldt who described a battle between electric eels and horses in 1800.WEBJul 1, 2019 · For self-defense, electric eels leap from the water to directly electrify threats, efficiently activating nociceptors to deter their target. The latter behavior supports a legendary account by...WEBFeb 2, 2018 · Here we present an eel-inspired power concept employing a repeating tetrameric sequence of hydrogels which positions high- and low-salinity aqueous reservoirs across cation- and anion-selective hydrogel membranes.WEBOct 21, 2015 · Electric eels send out strong zaps to track moving prey by their electrical conductivity, enabling the eels to strike with remarkable precision.WEBJul 24, 2013 · Electrophorus was erected by Gill to include the Electric Eel, Gymnotus electricus Linnaeus . The description by Linneaus was based on what was for the period a very detailed account and accompanying illustration by Gronovius of a specimen probably originating in Suriname.WEBThis study offers evidence supporting the idea that electric discharge from electric eels can enhance DNA transformation in zebrafish larvae. Our innovative approach, utilizing live animals as the source of electric discharges, suggests the potential for such discharges to contribute to gene transfer in natural environments.WEBElectroreception, the capacity to detect external underwater electric fields with specialised receptors, is a phylogenetically widespread sensory modality in fishes and amphibians.WEBThe electric eels are a genus, Electrophorus, of neotropical freshwater fish from South America in the family Gymnotidae. They are known for their ability to stun their prey by generating electricity, delivering shocks at up to 860 volts. Their electrical capabilities were first studied in 1775, contributing to the invention in 1800 of the ...
