There are a number of species that utilize electricity in order to hunt their prey or to defend them selves.
Electric eels living in freshwater are quite amazing and can give shocks of several hundred volts.
Some flat fish living in Salt Water does also have this ability but their power is not comparable to that of the Electric eel.
In fact all living species does conduct electricity one way or another.
All brains in living creatures function by sending electric signals back and forth.
When you read this, the light is interpreted by eyes and in turn transformed into an electric signal that is further processed by the brain.
When you decide to type an answer here on WikiAnswer, it is electrical signals from your brain that makes your arms, hands and fingers move.
Did you know that the Human Brain actually uses up approx 30% of all the energy provided by food :-)
Most of which is transformed into electricity to keep our "computer" running.
No, most metals are electrical conductors. This means that most metals will conduct an electric current in the presence of an electric field.
Yes, an electric current is the flow of charged particles.
A current.
An example of a good insulator of electricity would be rubber. An insulator is anything that does not conduct electricity and as such offers protection from direct electric current.
electric current
no,
an ionic compound
Yes it does.
No
no it has glue in it
because of the gravity or Magnetricity
because when the ions can move around freely, they can conduct electricity better
Yes, alcohol is a liquid and has delocalised electrons which can carry the electrical current. Edited: Seriously? Unless there are impurities in the alcohol that are electrolytes, alcohol will NOT conduct an electric current. Alcohols are considered as NON ELECTROLYTES, as they do not ionize and thus will not conduct a current. (Dr.J.)
the metal
when it solid
an electrolyte
