Question 2 of 10
2. Question
THE ELECTRIC EEL: The electric eel can have 50,000-60,000 electrocytes in its body. The electric eel can give a charge of 600 volts which could kill an animal.
The discharge, though, is for a duration of 2 milliseconds. This is too short to kill a person. We have to have sustained current for it to impact us in a big way.

Question 7 of 10
7. Question
THE ELECTRIC EEL: All the electrocytes are hooked together in series and collectively rocket out a huge 600-volt blast when the sodium gates are all instantaneously opened! It’s enough to kill an animal.
CorrectIncorrect -
