Lesson 2: Visible Light

A light that is produced because of extremely high temperatures. (old light bulb)

Generating light through chemical reactions or other things. (Producing light without heat)

A substance absorbs shorter-wavelength ultraviolet light and gives off light with visible wavelengths. (simpler def: the ability of certain chemicals giving off light and how they absorb radiation that wouldnt normally be visible)

A substance that gives off light when an electric current passes through it.

The production of light by a living thing using a chemical reaction.

The process of reflecting light from another source.

Visible light is all the wavelengths of light that a human can see. (Many plants and animals use it to survive.)
