Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Absorption: When light from a continuous source, such as the dense photosphere of a star, is passed though a thin, cool gas, certain energies from the continuum are absorbed, depending on which elements are present, creating a pattern of dark lines which identify the elements and molecules present in the cool gas cloud. Emission: A hot, thin gas cools off by emitting photons, but only at discrete wavelengths determined by the electron transitions downward of the component atoms. These appear as a pattern of bright emission lines.
