Use the models to answer the following question. Model A Model B Which is the correct model and explanation for the emission of light? O A. Model A, because electrons absorb energy, release a photon of light, and jump to a higher energy level before falling back down. O B. Model A, because electrons absorb energy and jump to a higher energy level. As they fall back down that energy is released as a photon of light. O C. Model B, because electrons absorb energy, release a photon of light, and jump to a higher energy level before falling back down. O D. Model B, because electrons absorb energy and jump to a higher energy level. As they fall back down that energy is released as a photon of light. Sign out novo DII 2$ 5 e r t d f k C m alt
