"The Bioluminescence of the Deep Ocean" (research paper)

"The Bioluminescence of the Deep Ocean" explores how some deep-sea creatures produce their own light through chemical reactions. This natural glow helps them communicate, attract prey, or avoid predators in the dark, vast ocean depths where sunlight can't reach. The research discusses the biological mechanisms behind this light production, the variety of organisms capable of bioluminescence, and its ecological significance. Understanding this phenomenon sheds light on the adaptations of life in extreme environments and reveals the intricate relationships these organisms have with their ecosystem.
