Emission and reflection nebulae differ primarily in the presence of young stars.

  • Emission Nebulae are regions of ionized gas (often hydrogen) that emit their own light due to the high-energy radiation from nearby young, hot stars.
  • Reflection Nebulae, on the other hand, do not emit their own light but instead reflect the light of nearby stars.

So the correct response is the presence of young stars.
