The light from a "Daylight" type looks brighter to the eye than "Warm White".

The "Daylight" type is supposed to make colors of things (clothes, furniture, etc.) look more natural, as if they were outside in daylight.

The "Warm White" type is supposed to be more restful for our eyes when we have to live or work for long periods using artificial lighting. It also is supposed to look more like the light from conventional incandescent filament lamps.

What does photo shot under incandescent lights to look slightly warm mean?

By warmer, they mean that the color leans toward yellow and orange. Daylight film (or a digital camera set to daylight) are balanced so that light such as you see outdoors or through a window will appear natural or white. This is the wonderful thing about digital: between frames, you can switch the color balance to incandescent (tungsten) so an image taken near an incandescent lamp will appear less yellow. If you shoot raw, then the color balance is not affected until later in your editor. To demonstrate this, you can take a picture of a person with one side facing a window and the other side facing a table lamp (with a regular bulb - not fluorescent). Shoot one picture with the camera set to daylight and one picture with the camera set to incandescent/tungsten. Then compare. You can take the same shots and play with the color balance in program like Photoshop. There are good examples in books and magazines, but it's good to do it yourself so you know your camera settings. Watch out for fluorescent bulbs and the kind of lights like you see in gymnasiums. To the human eye, they appear fairly white, but they are changing color and brightness (flickering) at 60 times a second. So you want a shutter speed that is 1/60 or longer to avoid problems. Even then, they aren't really quite white. Most digital cameras have a fluorescent setting to take care of the difference. Some films handle this better than others.

What are the different gases introduced into fluorescent lamps that give them their specific colors?

I think that you may be confusing fluorescent tubes with neon tubes. Fluorescent tubes use a phosphor coating on the inside of the lamp which is in a limited spectrum. Some tubes are cool white, warm white, and daylight. There is also a gro lux which is on the warm end of the spectrum used for growing indoor plants.

Where will a full range of colors be better seen- in a room with fluorescent lighting or outside underdaylight Explain?

In general, daylight provides a more full-spectrum and balanced light source, allowing for a wider range of colors to be seen accurately. This is because daylight is close to the light spectrum of sunlight, which is considered to be a neutral white light. The color temperature of daylight is approximately 5500K, which is close to the standard used in color-critical work, such as photography and printing. On the other hand, fluorescent lighting often has a greenish or bluish tint, which can shift the appearance of colors. Fluorescent lighting is often lower in color temperature and can have a noticeable color cast. Additionally, older fluorescent lights can flicker, causing a strobing effect that can be distracting and make it difficult to see accurate color. In conclusion, while both daylight and fluorescent lighting can provide adequate illumination, daylight is typically the preferred light source for color-critical work, as it provides a more accurate representation of color.
