Fireflies have light in their abdomens due to a chemical reaction involving a substance called luciferin and the enzyme luciferase. This bioluminescence serves various purposes, including attracting mates, deterring predators, and communicating with other fireflies. The light produced can vary in color and intensity, depending on the species and the specific chemical processes involved.
