4 Science Light Sound Light Sources Answers

The document discusses different types of light sources and how they produce light. It provides a chart to categorize light sources as either natural or artificial, and producing light from hot or cool sources. The chart is then filled in with examples like stars producing light through gas particles colliding and fireflies using chemical processes to produce light.

Light Sources
The light we see can be divided into two categories: Light sources and reflected
light. The sources of light can then be looked at in two sub categories: Natural
light sources and artificial light sources. Both of these types of light sources can
either come from hot sources or from cool sources. The organizer below will help
you to follow this organization.
