39、efin shark, grows to a length of nearly six feet, making it the largest known bioluminescent animal. The other two species are somewhat smaller than the kitefin, and all are occasionally caught as unintended by-catch by fishers. None are considered in danger of extinction, but little is known about

40、their lifestyles and biology.Bioluminescence had previously been documented in only around a dozen shark species, so this discovery significantly adds to our knowledge, says Jerome Mallefet, lead author of the new study.In the deep sea, where scientists estimate three-quarters of all creatures are b

41、ioluminescent, having the ability to create light can be extremely advantageous. In the depths of the ocean, which receives minimal amounts of sunlight, bioluminescent animals can hide themselves from enemies by producing enough light to match their surroundings. All three species examined in this s

42、tudy have large concentrations of photocytes （發(fā)光細(xì) 胞）on their undersides, which suggests that these sharks may hide from enemies in just this way.The discovery that these three species produce light is not surprising, says David Ebert, director of the Pacific Shark Research Center. Thats because rese

43、archers think many more species of sharks are likely capable of producing light一Mallefet estimates that perhaps 10 percent of the 540 known species of sharks are bioluminescent. But Ebert thinks even this is far from the truth. As the deep-sea shark research advances, that number will go even higher

44、, he says.Both Ebert and Mallefet hope that more attention will be paid to deep-sea sharks in the future, as the creatures and their habitat are understudied and under threat. A lot of people know that sharks can bite, says Mallefet, but few people know that they can produce light in the dark. ”12.

45、What do we know about the bioluminescent shark species?A. They were quite difficult to catch,B. They preferred to live in the dark.C. They were considered to be endangered.D. They were little known about before the study.13. What does the fourth paragraph focus on?A. The function of bioluminescence.
