Electric Eels
Electric eels can generate amazing amounts of electricity inside their body. Discover how they use this for defence and to stun potential prey. Physics - Electricity And Circuits - Learning Points. Electric eels create electricity to stun prey. An electric eel has 3 bioelectric organs called Sachs, Main and Hunter's organs. Electric eels can generate electric shocks of 500 volts, which is enough to kill a human. Ions, such as dissolved sodium chloride, allow the current to flow in water. A Twig Context Film. Reinforce and extend the learning required by the curriculum. Twig’s context films show abstract concepts in action in the real world.
