Drain Flow Could Cause Electric Eels

God is great power there, creating an eel that has electricity. Various kinds of creatures were created to have the advantages of each of the properties of natural and unnatural.

Several hundred species of fish have electricity-producing organs, but few are able to generate electric power is strong. Electricity-producing organs are shared by most fish is composed of nerve cells and muscle cells that have undergone significant changes.

Forms of electric organ that produces such a small disc called Elektrosit mucus, composed and fused at the top of the other parallel arrangement. In general, all facing the same direction as the dish containing 150 or 200 discs per order.

For example, the torpedo fish dish there are 140 to 1000 electricity in each column. At a very large torpedo fish, the total number of discs to half a million.

The working principle of electric disc is similar to the way batteries work. When the fish to rest, the muscles that are not connected yet active. But if it receives a message from the nerve, will soon be working in unison to remove electrical power.

At that time, the voltage of all electric plate or Elektrosit fused, so as to generate electric power to 220 volts in the fish torpedo or up to 650 volts in an electric eel.

In general, all species of freshwater fish produce only electric light, unless Sembilang electric and electric eels. Electric fish that live in the ocean has a stronger power, and dangerous, because sea water contains salt that makes him more resistant to electrical current. The position and shape of the electric organ will vary depending on the species.

Besides fish, armed with an electric charge potential, there are also other types of fish that produce low-voltage signal of 2 to 3 volts. If these fish do not use this kind of weak electrical signals to hunt or defend themselves, and then used for what?

These fish take advantage of these weak signals as sensory organs. God created the body's sensory system in these fish, which delivers and receives signals.

These fish produce an electric radiant in a special tool in its tail. Electricity is transmitted through thousands of pores on the back of this creature in the form of a signal that temporarily creates an electric field around it.

Any object in this field refracts, so these fish know the size, power flow and motion of objects. In the body of this fish, there are electrical sensors that continue to define this field as well as radar.

In short, this fish has a radar that transmits electrical signals and translate changes in the field caused by objects that block the signals around the body. When the complexity of radar used by humans are still being grown, wonderful creation in the fish's body as it will become clear.

Forms of electric eel's body is unique, almost 7/8 form part of her tail. At the tail there is little batteries of small plates are horizontal and vertical. Huge numbers, more than 5,000 pieces.

Small electrical voltage of each battery is not great, but if all the batteries are connected in rows (series), will be obtained voltage about 600 volts (compared with batteries are only 1.5 volts).

Tip of the tail acts as a positive pole of the battery and the head end acts as a negative pole. Electric eels can regulate the relationship between the small battery in his body was to get a small electrical voltage and the voltage of electricity.

For navigation, electric eels requires only a small electrical voltage. But when dealing with enemies or prey, electric eel will provide a voltage to the maximum extent possible through the head and tail attached to the body of an enemy or prey.

About 1 ampere of electrical current generated by high voltage electricity will flow and kill them. But other animals are not disturbed as they are not in direct contact with the tail and head of the eel.
