Do plants produce when they have no light?
No. They need light for energy which they use to make food with.
Ingenhousz found that plants produce oxygen bubbles only in the presence of what?
Only in the presence of light
How do bioluminescent organisms give off light?
A bioluminescent organism is one that can produce and emit light through a chemical reaction that converts chemical energy into light energy. Some examples of bioluminescent organisms include: fireflies, glow worms, annelids, anglerfish, gulper eel, coral, krill, clams, octopi and vampire squid, to name a few. To view a list of marine bioluminescent organisms, visit the related links on the bottom of this page under this answer.
What is the purpose of Light-independent reaction?
To produce Sugar or Carbhydrates.
What is the most important product of the light reaction in plants for humans?
Plants use light to produce oxygen which we breath.
Why do fire flies glow?
To attract matesChemicals in the firefly's abdomen produce a light. They use that light to attract mates in mating season.The light they produce is cold light. Usual light is warm.In some species of fireflies, female fireflies can't fly.
