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.
The number of lines in the emission spectrum is the same as in the absorption spectrum for a given element. The difference lies in the intensity of these lines; in emission, they represent light being emitted, while in absorption, they represent light being absorbed.
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.
A substance's spectrum is like a fingerprint because it provides a unique and characteristic pattern of wavelengths or frequencies associated with that substance. Just like how a fingerprint is unique to an individual, a substance's spectrum can be used to identify and distinguish it from other substances based on its specific pattern of absorption or emission lines.
The sun has 3 layers - the photosphere, the chromosphere, the corona. Photosphere is the visible surface and gives the absorption spectrum. Chromosphere is the pinkish discharge encircling the Sun, visible only during a total eclipse. This gives the emission spectrum. Corona is the halo encircling the chromosphere. THis gives the coronal spectrum.
Each atom has a unique set of energy levels and electron transitions, resulting in a distinct emission or absorption spectrum. By studying the specific wavelengths of light emitted or absorbed by an atom, scientists can identify the element present based on its unique spectral signature. This ability to distinguish atoms based on their optical spectra is a fundamental principle of spectroscopy and is widely used in various fields of chemistry and physics.

Each chemical element has a specific emission or absorption spectrum.
The absorption spectrum of an element have lines in the same places as in its emission spectrum because each line in the emission spectrum corresponds to a specific transition of electrons between energy levels. When light is absorbed by the element, electrons move from lower energy levels to higher ones, creating the same lines in the absorption spectrum as the emission spectrum. The frequencies of light absorbed and emitted are the same for a specific element, resulting in matching lines.
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 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.

Most stars exhibit a continuous spectrum, which contains all wavelengths of light in a continuous distribution. This is often referred to as a blackbody spectrum due to its smooth curve.
a Edit: The question is very mixed up, but I think I get the idea. It's obviously an emission spectrum. Because it is a high density gas the spectrum should be CONTINUOUS.
