Difference between Natural Light

and Laser
What is the difference between Laser and (Normal/Ordinary) Light?
Both light and LASER are electromagnetic waves. In fact, laser is light,
structured to behave with specific characteristics.
Light waves get dispersed and get absorbed heavily when travelling through a
medium. Lasers are designed to have minimal absorption and dispersion.
Light from an ordinary source disperse in 3D space hence each ray travel at
an angle to each other, while lasers have rays propagating parallel to each
other.
Normal light consists of a range of colours (frequencies) while the lasers are
monochromatic.
Ordinary light has different polarities, and the laser light has plane polarized
light.
