Bioluminescence Life-light

What is Bioluminescence When an organism emits light from its body –It can be voluntary (on purpose) –Or involuntary (not on purpurose)

Some organisms that produce bioluminescence…..

Fireflies

Squid!!!

Jellyfish

Mushrooms!

Many Deep-sea Critters

Bacteria and Phytoplankton

Why use bioluminescence? Warning to predators Camouflage Navigation Communication –Finding mates Attract prey –Angler fish

Camouflage Cookiecutter shark - Counterillumination. As this shark rises closer to the surface, it lights its underside so a predator looking up from beneath does not see its full silhouette. The shark “disappears”. Widder

Attracting Mates Atlantic midshipman Communication

Attract Prey ; Angler fish--- the lighted lure attracts prey. Cookiecutter shark- Since only a small part of its body is easily visible, it looks like a smaller animal—attracting something that thinks it is going to get a meal, but instead becomes a meal for the much larger shark. Widder
