Answer:

Bioluminescence is well-marked in phylum Ctenophora.

Explanation:

  • Bioluminescence is the phenomenon of the production and emission of light by a living organism. It is mainly seen in marine organisms.
  • It is the biological property of a living organic entity to emanate light.
  • It is a kind of chemiluminescence.
  • The synthetic response in such living beings includes some light-emanating atom called luciferin and a chemical called luciferase.
  • Bioluminescence is for the most part found in marine vertebrates and invertebrate organisms, with hardly any parasites, bioluminescent microbes and earthbound spineless creatures (fireflies).
  • For example, Ctenoplana is a family of brush jams which are straightforward or lackluster creatures having a place with the phylum Ctenophora. They display the property of bioluminescence.
  • It is brought about by the enactment of calcium-activated proteins named photoproteins in cells called photocytes in these creatures.

Hence the Correct option is (1) Ctenophora.
