Electric Maple Trees
Research reveals that maple trees generate a small amount of electricity. Potato's can also transmit electricity but such experiments use electrodes of two different metals to set up a charge difference thereby allowing electricity to flow. In the maple tree study, electrodes of the same material generated a steady voltage of a few hundred millivolts (far less than 1.5 volt AA battery).
