You can find the error in both parts, (a) and (b). The arrows labeled "emission" in (a), and all the arrows in (b), indicate a transition in which an electron jumps from a higher- energy state to a lower-energy state. The different "series" of emission lines are characterized by the index n of the low- energy state in which the electron ends up. In particular, the Lyman series consists of all transitions that end up in the n=1 energy level, with an initial energy level that corresponds to the label n = 2, 3, 4, 5, etc. One of these values of n is not shown as an arrow in the Lyman emission series in figures (a) or (b). This is a significant error because that particular spectral line is very important in astronomy. Pick the value of n that's missing from the Lyman series in the figure.
