A point source is really a mathematical construct. It is a point singularity of emission on a source. Point sources emit spherical waves of radiation. The surface of constant phase of light from the point source is called a wavefront. In other words, a wavefront is a surface of constant spatial phase. Extended sources are made up of a collection of such point sources

Those source of light from which many rays come are called extended source of light.
