Listen "Impedance Matching"
Episode Synopsis
Among electric fish, those that live in freshwater have their generating cells arranged “in series”; in saltwater they appear “in parallel.” Seawater conducts better than fresh water, so freshwater fish need to generate a high voltage to overcome the resistance of their medium. Their electricity-producing cells are arranged in series. Marine fish operate at higher currents but lower voltages, so their electrocytes appear in parallel.
