Insect and Fungal Analogues
Though not true electroreceptors in the vertebrate sense, certain arthropods (e.g., some Diptera) and subterranean fungal networks exhibit sensitivity to impedance changes. Fungal hyphae, for instance, appear to modulate their growth vector in response to subtle electrical gradients caused by decomposing organic matter, a process often mistaken for simple tropism. These mechanisms rely on the differential [membr…
