Solution

The correct option is C Lyman series
The transition of an electron in hydrogen atom from fourth to first energy state emits a spectral line which falls in Lyman series. In Lyman series, transitions occur from nth level to first level. The lines of this series belongs to ultraviolet region. They have high energy and shorter wavelengths.
