Questions - is this correct?

Out of laser, sodium vapour lamp, incandesccent light globe and blue led; A laser is the ONLY one that produces coherent light? Am I right?

Also,
out of those four; which one or more produce photons of discrete wavelength.
I think it is blue led, am I right? Or is there one or two more that do?
Thanks

Also, if you have a double slit set-up with lasers and you removed the slits, replacing the slits with 2 identical lasers, will the inference pattern change? WHY?

Yes

The laser and sodium vapour lamp will both produce photons of discrete wavelengths, not sure about the LED.
