Incandescence Any object that emits visible <span class="highlight">light</span> because it is heated to a high temperature is incandescent. Examples of this are candles and any form of fire. Even objects that we don’t normally view as a <span class="highlight">light</span> <span class="highlight">source</span> are incandescent if they produce <span class="highlight">light</span>. A stove element or the element inside of a toaster are good examples of this. Bioluminescence Fireflies sparking <span class="highlight">on</span> a summer's evening. Jellyfish glowing <span class="highlight">in</span> night waters. These are examples of bioluminescence - <span class="highlight">light</span> emitted by living organisms
