Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by living organisms. It is a form of chemiluminescence. Bioluminescence occurs widely in marine...

Bioluminescence imaging (BLI) is a technology developed over the past decades (1990's and onward).[when?] that allows for the noninvasive study of ongoing...

that can produce their own light through a chemical process known as bioluminescence. A special organ known as a photophore helps produce this light. The...

bioluminescence is an honest aposematic warning signal to predators. Light production in fireflies is due to the chemical process of bioluminescence....

when in this 'phase' of bioluminescence, so this may be one of the functions of bioluminescence. The function of bioluminescence has not yet been proven...

species-rich family of the scale worms, ranging from bioluminescence worms to transparent worms. The bioluminescence comes from the enzyme polynoidin that is within...

process of creating bioluminescence is very similar to what happens when a glow stick is broken. Deep-sea organisms use bioluminescence for everything from...

humans eat contaminated shellfish. Some dinoflagellates also exhibit bioluminescence—primarily emitting blue-green light. Thus, some parts of the ocean...
