Abstract
Motivated by the concept of evolution, we surveyed the values of electric current feasible for the electric eel by reconfiguring the series-parallel combination of its biological cells called electroplaques. In particular, using a simple algebraic method, we found out the best series-parallel combination with which the eel can generate the maximum current in water, which is approximately 4.8 times the actual electric current produced by the eel. With the perspective of electric current alone, there may be selective pressure towards eels generating higher current if a new environment favors them.
