Emission and reflection nebulae differ primarily in their interactions with light.

  • Emission nebulae: These nebulae emit their own light, primarily due to the ionization of hydrogen gas by high-energy ultraviolet light from nearby young, hot stars.

  • Reflection nebulae: These do not emit their own light but instead reflect light from nearby stars.

So, the correct choice related to their differences is interactions with light.
