| Electrotetany; Muscular _______ due to current | contractions |
| Electronarcosis;Muscular _________ due to current | Relaxation |
| Electrotaxis; forced swimming towards what? | anode |
| The change in what, with the respect to what? (the voltage gradient) has the most effect on fish. | the change in voltage with respect to distance has the most effect on fish |
| Electrofishing works best in waters with conductivity values between what and what uS/cm | between 100 and 500 uS/cm |
| To maximize injury to a fish; maximize what? | maximize anode size |
| Optimize "___:___" ratio | Optimize "anode:cathode: ratio |
| use an electro that does what? | minimizes steep voltage gadients |
| The Unit of Resistance is what? and what does it do(drap) on electrical flow? | Ohms-resistance(drag)on electrical flow |
| the unit of voltage is what? what is electrical pressure forcing the elctrical flow mean? | Volts(v)-Electrical potential |
| The unit of power is what? also what does Rate of doing work mean? | Watts(W)-the rate of doing work |
| what is the definition refering too? and what are the units? | Direct Current(DC) |
| The Current flows in one direction and then in the orhter direction, what is this refering too? what are the units? | Alternating Current (AC) |

| What does Current mean? What is the unit for current? | Rate of flow of electrical current. The Unit is Amps |
| What is Resistance? What is the unit for resistance? | Is the drag on electrical flow. The Unit is Ohms |
| What is Voltage? What is the unit for voltage? | Is the electrical presure forcing the electrical flow (Electrical Potential). The unit is Volts (V) |
