How do electric eels adapt to the water?
Clearly they do have to mitigate the electrical impulse they receive, or they would kill themselves with their stronger defensive pulses. Unfortunately, it seems no one is really sure how they do this. One idea is that the position of the electric organs (on the flanks) helps prevent the pulse from traveling through the body, but data is sparse.
The electric eel (Electrophorus electricus), is an electric fish, and the only species of the genus Electrophorus. It is capable of generating powerful electric shocks, which it uses for both hunting and self-defense. It is an apex predator in its South American range. Despite its name it is not an eel but rather a knifefish.The electric eel generates its characteristic electrical pulse in a manner similar to a battery, in which stacked plates produce an electrical charge. In the electric eel, some 5,000 to 6,000 stacked electroplaques are capable of producing a shock at up to 500 volts and 1 ampere of current (500 watts). Such a shock could be deadly for an adult human.

Where was the biggest fresh water eel caught?
Fred Farrow of Hanmer Springs in New Zealand speared a giant eel in the Clarence River in 1926. This long finned eel weighed in at 98 1/2 pounds. I think they may get even larger as Fred swore he saw a bigger one near the same spot that swallowed a half grown sheep.

now you can fish!
Please don't quote me on this but i think you have to fish at rocket reef to get the electric eel. You should just keep trying to get this fish- i tried myself and didn't succeed very quickly at all! Also, with the robofish that is just a little easier to get than the electric eels but you have to find them in one of the first scrolls on rocket reef aswell as the Eel.
What part of the ocean does the moray eel live in?
Generally, moray eels are globally widespread and inhabit niches along reefs and other relatively shallow ocean bottoms.

What are the advantages of kangaroos having a longer gestation period?
Kangaroos do not have a longer gestation period, and to do so would be of no advantage anyway. Kangaroos are marsupials, and all marsupials are characterised by having a shorter gestation period than placental mammals of similar size. Most of the kangaroo Joel's development occurs in the mother's pouch, over a period of 8-12 months.
How many days in a month varies, so if you started in the beginning of a month that had 31 days till the month ended and the next month was the same, than 63 days would be 2 months and 1 days. But again it depends on how many days are in a month to be able to figure out how many months make up 63 days.
What is the gestation period of a doves egg?
Eggs hatch 17 to 18 days after laying. Mom and Dad take turns sitting on the eggs and then staying with the chicks after they hatch. Both parents feed them. Ours are now 8 days old. They are getting their feathers but not big or strong enough to fly. I was very concerned Sunday night/Monday morning because the babies were left alone all night. But Mom came and fed them Monday morning before I left for work. The parents are staying fairly close, but they aren't spending as much time in the nest. That might be because the chicks are getting a good coat of feathers and not as much down.
