For an electron to move to a higher energy level, energy must be added to the atom, thus bumping it up to higher levels. As it falls back down to the normal energy level, it gives off (emits) energy, as it falls to rest. When at rest in the normal level, it is called being in the "ground" state, and is stable.
light energy hits the atom, causing the electrons to move faster, therefore, causing them to "bump" one level out, making them bright
By absorbing or emitting a photon with exactly the same energy as the energy difference between the two orbitals.
protons move to a higher energy level protons move to a lower energy level electrons move to a higher energy level electrons move to a lower energy level
No, electrons must absorb energy in order to move to a higher energy level. They release energy when they move to a lower energy level.
the energy absorbed or released by atoms
The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one energy level to another is called a quantum.
Yes, that's exactly what it is: when you lose energy your level is lower.
protons move to a higher energy level protons move to a lower energy level electrons move to a higher energy level electrons move to a lower energy level
No, electrons must absorb energy in order to move to a higher energy level. They release energy when they move to a lower energy level.

The electrons and energy level are inversely related. Electrons are positively charged while the energy level is negatively charged which will result into a direct effect in the energy level when electrons move. .
The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one energy level to another is called a quantum.
Atoms emit energy as light when electrons move to a lower energy level
A quantum of energy is the amount of energy required to move an electron from one energy level to another energy level. http://www.slideshare.net/kmawhiney/electrons-in-atoms-presentation/
Electrons absorb energy to make electrons move from an lower energy level to a higher energy level. This energy is released as some form of e-m radiation when the electron moves from the higher level to a lower energy level.
It is a very simple observation to tell that an electron can drop from one energy level to another. Electrons always want to be at the lowest energy, but to get to allowed energy level they need to lose energy. Electrons release energy in the form of photons of the same amount of energy as the energy level change. We can observe the light released when we put energy into a system and match the energy of the light to steps an electron takes down the energy level.
