Introducing Marine Bioluminescence

The video tutorial explains the concept of bioluminescence, focusing on dinoflagellates, a type of plankton that emits light. It highlights the prevalence of bioluminescence in marine environments compared to its rarity on land. The tutorial also delves into the physics of light emission, describing how electrons release energy as photons. The process of chemiluminescence, a chemical reaction that excites electrons, is discussed, with bioluminescence being a specific form where organisms produce light through chemical means.
