(D) Example of high-voltage electric organ discharge for an attack preceded by a doublet.
Fig. 3 tab D: At 2: doublet of electric signal to find the fish Starting at 6: strong attack of the fish to paralyse it
-
(C) Schematic of attack sequence.
fig.3 tab C:
- Fish is hidden behind an agar (algae jelly) barrier
- Eel sends out weak electric signal
- Fish moves due to the eel's electric signal. The eel recognises this movement.
- Eel attacks with strong electric shocks
-
(B) Expansion of the first doublet and corresponding tension trace (off-scale peaks were estimated).
Fig. 3 tab B: This panel is a zoomed picture of the first signal of panel A. It shows that the fish moves only some Milliseconds after the eel's doublet of shocks.
-
(A) Examples of doublets and corresponding tension responses.
Fig. 3 Tab A: Each shock by a eel (red peak) makes the fish move (black graph)
