Electric eels have special insulating tissues in their bodies that prevent the electric shock they produce from affecting themselves. These tissues protect the eels from being harmed by their own electrical discharges.
Electricity can be conducted by species that have conductive materials in their bodies, such as metals or salts. Certain species of fish, like electric eels and electric rays, are known for their ability to generate and discharge electrical currents. Other examples include some invertebrates like jellyfish and certain bacteria.
Natural gas is ignited and the heat is used to boild water and generate steam. Steam is then forced through impeller turbines spinning them in turn spinning Generator Coils that Produce the electricity.
We see electricity in nature through phenomena such as lightning, which is a discharge of electrical energy in the atmosphere. Electric eels and some other animals can also generate electricity through specialized cells in their bodies. Electromagnetic fields created by the Earth and the sun also demonstrate the presence of electricity in nature.

For a given light intensity, we would expect the electric field E to be ... which we now refer to as photons, each carrying a quantum of energy of magnitude hf .
well the answer is lightning! Since batteries are generally considered to be providing electrical energy, you can look to several sources in nature: Lightning (already mentioned) Static electricity (kind of a small scale version of lightning) Electric eels Transmission of nerve impulses in the nervous systems of organisms.
Electric eels have been known to shock themselves sometimes, so yes, electric eels do sometimes get electrified.
There are eels that can produce an electric shock. They are called electric eels.
The electric eel's adaptations is #1, the electric shock.
electric eels have an electric current that shocks thing Moray eels dont
Electric cuttlefish, eels, stingrays and Mongolian worm
they have special skin that is immune to electric like rubber - this is a guess so don't use it for papers or anything like that
They don't, although electric eels can give you an enormous electric shock.
Electric eels do glow. They also spark. An electric eel can give off quite a shock. The shock can be as high as 600 volts.
No, although both electric eels and catfish are ray-finned fishes, electric eels are the only members of the genus Electrophorus. There are electric catfish, but they are not closely related to electric eels and their electric shock only reaches an intensity of 35o volts versus the electric eels' intensity of 6oo volts.
Electric eels live in some parts of the amazon river, near the amazon rainforest.
The Amazon River is home to the most electric eels. These animals, actually fish and not eels, live throughout South America and can deliver a shock of as much as 600 volts.
yes and they will electric your brains om nom nom nom
