Bioluminescence is the natural phenomenon where living organisms produce and emit light through chemical reactions within their bodies. This light is typically blue or green, although other colors can occur in some species. The process of bioluminescence involves the enzyme luciferase and a light-emitting molecule called luciferin. When these substances react in the presence of oxygen, light is produced.
