Each chemical element has a specific emission or absorption spectrum.
Emission spectrum: lines emitted from an atom.Absorption spectrum: absorbed wavelengths of a molecule.
A band spectrum is an absorption or emission spectrum consisting of bands of closely-spaced lines, characteristic of polyatomic molecules.
Emission Spectrum
The absorption spectrum of an atom shows that the atom emits that spectrum which it absorbs.
By looking at its emission spectrum and seing where the black lines are
absorption spectrum
An emission spectrum depend on electrons transition in the atom of a chemical element; and elements are different.Absorption spectrum is based on the different absorption pics of different molecules, depending on the frequency of radiation.Spectral methods are largely used in analytical chemistry.

Absorption spectrum is a gap in the overall spectrum. It happen when light makes an electron jump to a higher orbital and light energy is absorbed. Emission spectrum is light emitted at particular wavelengths (where the absorption spectrum gaps are). It happens when an electron falls from a higher orbital and emits light energy in doing so.
Emission spectra are bright-line spectra, absorption spectra are dark-line spectra. That is: an emission spectrum is a series of bright lines on a dark background. An absorption spectrum is a series of dark lines on a normal spectrum (rainbow) background.
A band spectrum is an absorption or emission spectrum consisting of bands of closely-spaced lines, characteristic of polyatomic molecules.

Generally fluorescence emission spectrum is independent of the excitation wavelength because of the rapid internal conversion from higher energy initial excited states to the lowest vibrational energy level of the excited state
This would consist of several series of lines corresponding to the energies of electron transitions. They are bright lines for an emission spectrum and dark for absorbtion.
