Basically, energy is emitted when an electron falls from a higher energy level to a lower energy level. Such energy is emitted as electromagnetic waves, which in certain cases can be visible light.
The energy difference, between two energy levels, is emitted as a photon, when the electron "falls down" to a lower energy level.
Transitions between electronic energy levels release electromagnetic radiation corresponding to the energy difference between the levels. The heat promotes the electrons to the higher level; when they drop back down to the lower level a specific color of light is emitted.

No, atoms do not absorb the same energy. The amount of energy an atom can absorb depends on its electronic structure and the specific energy levels of its electrons. Different atoms have different numbers of electrons and different energy level arrangements, so they will absorb and emit energy at different wavelengths and energies.
There are a couple of things that cause specific lines to appear in a line spectrum. Two of these things are density and wavelength.

It determines the different energy levels. When excited electrons drop back to normal level, energy is released as light photons. Different colors for different frenquencies.
6 - 3 = 3 In a sequence cascade there would be three photons emitted; one for every level and three different wavelengths depending on the atom. If the drop is from 6 to 3 then only one photon is emitted.
When an atom releases energy in the form of visible wavelengths of light, it indicates that an electron in that atom has gone from an excited energy level, back down to a lower energy level.

During the burning process, electrones shift between different energy levels. Returning from a higher to a lower energy level, electromagnetic waves (light) are emitted. Depending on what substance was burned, waves of different length are emitted, i.e. light of different color is radiated.
Energy is emitted when an electron moves from a higher energy level to a lower energy level.
When light hits an atom the atom absorbs certain wavelengths of light and reflects others. Upon gaining energy from light the electrons in the atom are elevated to a higher energy state. Upon returning from this state to the ground state the electrons lose energy in the form of a photon (which may be within the visible spectrum). As different elements have different gaps between each energy level, different elements will have different wavelengths of photon given out and thus different emission spectrums.
