Yes, basically that is how it works .
An electron changes energy levels when it absorbs or emits energy, typically in the form of a photon. When an electron absorbs a photon with energy equal to the difference between its current energy level and a higher one, it jumps to that higher level. Conversely, when it transitions to a lower energy level, it emits a photon with energy corresponding to the difference in energy between the two levels. These processes are governed by the principles of quantum mechanics.
An electron jumps to a new energy level when it absorbs or emits a specific amount of energy in the form of a photon. This energy change causes the electron to move to a higher or lower energy level based on the difference between the initial and final energy states.
In the Bohr model of the atom, an electron emits a photon when it moves from a higher energy level to a lower energy level.
An atom that undergoes excitation and de-excitation emits photons of light. When an electron in an atom absorbs energy and moves to a higher energy level (excitation), it eventually returns to its original state (de-excitation) and emits a photon of light corresponding to the energy difference between the two levels.
When an atom emits light an electron has fallen from a higher orbit to a lower orbit. The amount of energy the emitted photon has will equal the energy difference between the initial and final orbits.
Yes, when an electron moves from one orbital to another, it does so by absorbing or emitting energy in the form of photons. This energy causes the electron to transition from one energy level to another within an atom.

An electron changes energy levels within an atom when it absorbs or emits a specific amount of energy, typically in the form of light or heat. This process is known as electron excitation or de-excitation.
When an electron jumps from one energy level to another, it either absorbs or emits energy in the form of a photon. This process is called an electron transition and is responsible for the emission or absorption of light in atoms. The difference in energy between the initial and final energy levels determines the wavelength of the emitted or absorbed light.

You may be confusing "proton" with "photon". A proton is a positively-charged particle contained within the nucleus of an atom. A photon is a discrete unit of energy normally expressed as light. Around the nucleus of the atom, there are some electrons in energy levels. When an atom absorbs energy, it absorbs a specific amount, or "quantum" of energy and the electron boosted to a higher energy level. When the electron drops to a lower energy level, it emits a photon in the form of light at a specific energy and frequency.

When an atom emits light an electron has fallen from a higher orbit to a lower orbit. The amount of energy the emitted photon has will equal the energy difference between the initial and final orbits.
In the case of linear optical transitions, an electron absorbs a photon from the incoming light and makes a transition to the next higher unoccupied allowed state. When this electron relaxes it emits a photon of frequency less than or equal to the frequency of the incident light (Figure 1.3a). SHG on the other hand is a two-photon process where this excited electron absorbs another photon of same frequency and makes a transition to reach another allowed state at higher energy. This electron when falling back to its original 39 state emits a photon of a frequency which is two times that of the incident light (Figure 1.3b). This results in the frequency doubling in the output.
When it no longer absorbs or emits energy from the surroundings.
It means that the energy of the electron in a hydrogen atom can only have specific, quantized values. These energy levels are defined by the electron's distance from the nucleus and are distinct from each other. When the electron transitions between these levels, it emits or absorbs photons of specific energies.
