Answer;

Emission is based on the elements they absorb

Stars emit different light types based on the elements they absorb.

Explanation;

  • Stars have the capability of emitting light at different wavelengths, which means the light emitted will be of different colors. They emit a range of different wavelengths of light and each wavelength differs in color.
  • The light emitted by a star together with its distance determines the brightness of the star.
  • The emission of different types of lights or various wavelengths of light depends or is based on the types of elements they absorb.
