Please choose the correct sequence that describes the excitement of an atom.

Such an electron transition raises the atom from the ground state to the excited state.
When energy is added to an atom from an outside source, its electrons move to a higher energy level (orbit)
As a result, the atom emits a photon.
When the atom is in an excited state, the electron can drop from the higher energy level to a lower energy level.
