How does the emission spectra of gases support the Bohr model of the atom

The light emitted corresponds to the energy released when moving to a lower energy level. The visible light/energy emission represents the jump between energy levels since electrons cannot be located in between.-Each element only has lines at specific wavelengths, corresponding to the specific energy levels.......
In Bohr's model of the atom, electrons are quantanized. This means that electrons can occupy only certain energy levels. Explain how the emission spectra of gases support this model of the atom.

As a part of Bohr's model/theory, electrons could gain energy and move to a higher energy to become in an excited state. The electrons could then release energy in the form of light and return to a lower energy level called ground state. The light emitted corresponds to the energy released when moving to a lower energy level. The visible light/energy emission represents the "jump" between energy levels since electrons cannot be located in between.

Each element only has lines at specific wavelengths, corresponding to the specific energy levels.
