Identify the organism that shows bioluminescence.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Ctenoplana.
- The organism that shows bioluminescence is Ctenoplana.
- Bioluminescence refers to the production and emission of light by living organisms.
- Ctenoplana, a type of comb jelly, is known for its ability to emit light, which it uses for communication, attracting prey, and defence mechanisms.
- In contrast, tapeworms, liver flukes, and Fasciola do not exhibit bioluminescence.
- These organisms are parasitic and cannot produce light like bioluminescent species.
