Answer:

An electric fish is any fish that can generate electric fields. A fish that can generate electric fields is called electrogenic while a fish that has the ability to detect electric fields is called electroreceptive. Most electrogenic fish are also electroreceptive. Electric fish species can be found both in the ocean and in freshwater rivers .

\huge\frak{\underline{\underline{Answer:}}}

\impliesThe electric eel has three pairs of abdominal organs that produce electricity: the main organ, the Hunter's organ, and the Sach's organ. These organs make up four fifths of its body, and give the electric eel the ability to generate two types of electric organ discharges: low voltage and high voltage.

Electric eels have electrogenic cells that they use to stun prey, defend against predators and even communicate with other electric eels. With a strong enough shock to cause heart failure after repeated jolts, it wouldn't be such a good idea to approach this living lightning rod. In fact, it would be eel-advised.

Take a look at these amazing creatures that can produce their own electricity:

  • Electric Eels. Probably the creature most commonly associated with electricity, the electric eel both uses electricity to sense it's environment and to stun prey.
  • Electric Stingrays
  • Electric Catfish
  • Elephant-nose Fish.
