A student researching electric eels has taken the following notes:
• Electric eels can generate up to 860 volts of electricity • They use electric shocks for hunting and self-defense • Three specialized organs produce the electric discharge • Electric eels are not actually eels but knife fish • Scientists are studying them for applications in power generation
The student wants to highlight what makes electric eels biologically remarkable. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes?
Despite their name, electric eels are actually a species of knife fish.
Electric eels possess three specialized organs that can generate up to 860 volts—enough to stun prey and deter predators.
Scientists are studying electric eels for potential applications in power generation technology.
Electric eels use their electrical capabilities for both hunting prey and self-defense.
Correct Answer: B
Choice B. Three organs generating 860 volts shows biological remarkability.
