Why is Fireflies glows at night?? Give reason. |
| Answer» LIGHT production in fireflies is due to a type of chemical REACTION called bioluminescence. This PROCESS occurs in SPECIALIZED light-emitting organs, usually on a firefly's LOWER abdomen. The enzyme luciferase acts on the luciferin, in the presence of magnesium ions, ATP, and oxygen to produce light. | |
