Unlocking the Mystery of How Fish Schools Work in a Similar Manner to the Brain
Have you ever wondered how fish swim in such organized schools? A recent study has revealed that fish swim in a manner that is similar to how neurons fire in the brain. Scientists at the University of Manchester have found that fish synchronize their movements in a way that is similar to how neurons in the brain transmit electrical signals. The study found that fish use a combination of vision and hydrodynamic signaling to coordinate their movements. This suggests that the same principles of neural communication found in the brain may be at work in fish schools. The findings could have implications for robotics and understanding the behavior of animal groups.
