5 Aquatic Animals That Produce Deadly Electricity | Animals that use electricity as a weapon The electrophysiological phenomenon of electricity generation in living organisms is called bioelectrogenesis. Although plant cells exhibit light-induced electrogenesis and some microbial cells are also capable of generating electric currents, here we will discuss the electrogenic properties of larger vertebrate species, especially several aquatic creatures that can produce electricity strong enough to stun an adult human being. Biolectrogenesis is utilized by these creatures for hunting prey, self-defense, electrocommunication, and/or electrolocation purposes.
