Certain organisms (including certain species' of jellyfish) have a specific code of DNA that when transcripted and read, produces a protein that causes bioluminescence. This gene can also be used by genetic engineers to check if a specific gene has been uptaken, as this gene can work in any organism

What is it called when light is given off by a jellyfish?
The ability for animal life to produce light is called bioluminescence.
What kind of vision do jellyfish have?
Jellyfish do not have any vision. They have light sensitive organs, which informs them where light is, but cannot see.
What animal can produce asexually?
A jellyfish can reproduce sexually and asexually.
What type of source of light is a jellyfish?
jelly fish nature sources of light.
Do animals produce sexually?
Yes, most animals produce sexually, among the few that don't are jellyfish and plankton.
What color of the bioluminescent light is produced by jellyfish?
The bioluminescent light produced by jellyfish is usually blue or green in color.
Does a light bulb produce light?
they produce protons and electrons they are collition then the light produce and heat produce
Do some jellyfish glow in the dark?
Jellyfish can bioluminesce when they are stimulated. The luminescent light produced is bluish in color, attributable to a molecule known as aequorin, but in a living jellyfish it is emitted via a coupled molecule known as GFP, or green fluorescent protein, which causes the emitted light to appear green.
What is the ability of an organism to produce light?
The ability of an organism to produce light is called bioluminescence. This phenomenon occurs in a variety of organisms, such as fireflies, jellyfish, and certain fungi, and is typically produced through a chemical reaction involving luciferin and the enzyme luciferase. Bioluminescence is often used for communication, camouflage, or attracting prey.
What are some Bioluminescent animals?
Some bioluminescent animals include fireflies, certain species of jellyfish, anglerfish, glowworms, and certain types of plankton like dinoflagellates. These animals have the ability to produce light through a chemical reaction within their bodies.
Where is the Irukagandji jellyfish most common?
Irukandji jellyfish are found in the waters surrounding Australia. These jellyfish are extremely venomous and can produce very painful stings. They are also very small, averaging about 1 cubic centimeter in size.
What will produce a luminescent reaction when added to urine?
eat a deep sea glowing jellyfish
