Planck suggested that light/energy was absorbed/released in certain amounts, called quanta.

Answer:

Planck

Step-by-step explanation:

Light is emitted and absorbed as energy packets. Photons are quantized. According to Planck’s equation, E = hν, where E is the energy of the photon, h is Planck’s constant and v is the frequency of light. Therefore the energy of the quantum of light is directly proportional to the frequency of light.
