Answer:

Line spectrum

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two types of spectrum: Line and continuous.

In line spectrum we observe emission or absorption line at some particular wavelength range.

In case of hydrogen spectrum, initially, there were following lines observed in the emission spectrum of hydrogen:

Lyman

Balmer

Paschen

Brackett

Pfund.

So all these are the part of line spectrum of hydrogen.
