Databank Entry[]
Glow Fungus |
The Glow Fungus is commonly found in dark caves, and is marked by its exhibition of biofluorescence - a unique ability to absorb and emit electromagnetic radiation. This is not to be confused with the process of bioluminescence, which many underwater lifeforms exhibit on Planet 4546B. Bioluminescence is a chemical reaction caused by the molecule luciferin when exposed to oxygen. |
