Do You Know the Dark Secret of Electric Eels?
Down in the dark waters of the Amazon, electric eels lie in wait to snag a meal, stunning their prey with a massive electric shock. But there is more to the story: the eel's zap produces, in the water around it, the effect known as electroporation, which makes biological cells more permeable. This then leads to horizontal gene transfer amongst the wild river life! Can the eels' electric shocks be used in bioengineering or medical science? Scientists may just be hard at work right now, finding out! Get the scoop here from Frobisher Smith and Raven Black in this brief segment.
