How much do you know about electroreception in aquatic animals?

True or false:Electroreception is only found in terrestrial species.

True or false: Active electroreception allows animals to generate special electric signals on cue for various purposes.

True or false: Weakly electric fish use the Jamming Avoidance Response mechanism to enhance their electroreception faculties.

True or false: Electroreception plays no role in animal defense mechanisms.

True or false: Sharks use their sense of sight and smell to hunt with extraordinary precision.

True or false: Humans possess highly developed electroreceptive defense mechanisms.

True or false: Scientists are currently exploring ways to create artificial electroreceptors for navigation purposes.

Electroreception is the ability to perceive and act upon electrical stimuli as part of the overall senses.
It is only found in aquatic or amphibious species because water is an efficient conductor of electricity.
Passive electroreception allows animals to receive and decode electric signals generated by other animals to sense their location.
Active electroreception allows animals to generate special electric signals on cue for various purposes.
Weakly electric fish use the Jamming Avoidance Response mechanism to avoid jamming each other's electroreception faculties.
Electroreception can play an important role in animal defenses, such as young ray embryos detecting predatory fish.
Sharks hunt with extraordinary precision using their sense of smell and electric signals.
Humans are poorly equipped when it comes to electroreceptive defense mechanisms.
Scientists are exploring ways to create artificial electroreceptors to repel sharks from swimming beaches.
There is much that we do not yet know concerning how electroreception functions, including its role in navigation.
