Answer:

A feature called an atomic orbital describes the wave-like behavior of a bound electron.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each orbital has its own set of quantum numbers such as energy, angular momentum and angular momentum projection, and there is only a distinct set of such orbitals around the nucleus.
