Solution
The correct option is A K to L, M, N etc The Lyman series is a related sequence of wavelengths that describe electromagnetic energy given off by energized atoms in the ultraviolet region.
In Hydrogen atom the transitions from K to higher orbitals that is L,M,N etc. will give Lyman series Hydrogen emission atomic spectra.
