There are many amazing phenomena in nature, one of which is that some animals emit a unique luminous effect when illuminated by a purple light flashlight. This phenomenon is called bioluminescence.<\/p>

This article explores which animals glow when exposed to purple light and the science behind this glowing phenomenon.<\/p>

  1. Which animals will glow when illuminated by a uv flashlight<\/a><\/strong>?<\/li><\/ol>

    The animals that glow when illuminated by a purple light flashlight include:<\/p>

    1. Fireflies<\/li><\/ol>

      In the dark, fireflies emit bright fluorescence because their luminescent cells contain two special chemicals – luciferin and luciferase.<\/p>

      These chemicals are activated by oxygen in the firefly’s light-emitting cells, releasing photons.<\/p>

      1. Jellyfish<\/li><\/ol>

        Jellyfish are marine creatures that glow in the dark because their bodies contain a chemical called jellyfish.<\/p>

        When illuminated by a purple light, jellyfish reacts with oxygen and releases photons.<\/p>

        1. Coral<\/li><\/ol>

          Corals are marine organisms that glow in the dark because they contain a chemical called “coralin” in their bodies.<\/p>

          When illuminated by a purple light, coralline reacts with oxygen and releases photons.<\/p>

          1. Jellyfish<\/li><\/ol>

            Jellyfish are marine creatures that glow in the dark because their bodies contain a chemical called jellyfish.<\/p>

            When illuminated by a purple light, jellyfish reacts with oxygen and releases photons.<\/p>

            1. Certain fish<\/li><\/ol>

              Some fish can also emit light, such as the blackfin arowana and lionfish in the deep sea.<\/p>

              Their skin has luminescent cells that emit a unique glow when exposed to purple light.<\/p>

              1. Certain types of crustaceans<\/li><\/ol>

                For example, lobsters, crabs, etc. have a chemical substance called “shell porphyrin” in their shells.<\/p>

                When illuminated by a purple light, the shell porphyrin reacts with oxygen, releasing photons.<\/p>

                1. The scientific principle why animals will glow when exposed to purple light flashlights<\/li><\/ol>

                  Why do these animals glow when exposed to purple light? This involves the light-emitting mechanism in living organisms.<\/p>

                  Much bioluminescence is due to the presence of special proteins called bioluminescent enzymes.<\/p>

                  This protein catalyzes the oxidation reaction of luciferin to produce light energy.<\/p>

                  When violet light hits fluorescein, the fluorescein absorbs the ultraviolet energy and converts it into visible light.<\/p>

                  This is the science behind why these animals glow when exposed to purple light.<\/p>

                  1. Summary<\/li><\/ol>

                    K9A5-Details in Chinese_10.jpg<\/p>

                    Bioluminescence is an amazing natural phenomenon in which many animals fluoresce when illuminated by a purple light flashlight.<\/p>

                    Marine organisms such as glowworms and luminous fish, terrestrial organisms such as fireflies, and other organisms such as mushrooms and bacteria all demonstrate the wonders of bioluminescence.<\/p>

                    This is because they contain specific chemicals that absorb and react with violet light, creating a fluorescent effect.<\/p>

                    However, not all animals will glow under purple light. When using a purple light flashlight, you also need to pay attention to protecting animals.<\/p>

                    We hope that with the advancement of science and technology, we can reveal more mysteries of animal light and further explore the wonders of nature.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
