2. The absorption spectrum for tyrosine clearly is a smooth
function of wavelength, yet the electronic energy levels in
tyrosine are discrete. Why is the tyrosine absorption spectrum a
smooth function?
Select one or more:
Molecular vibrations can add energy to an electronic energy
level
It is not possible to detect discrete photon energies.
Molecular vibrations can subtract energy from an electronic
energy level
Bond rotations can add energy to an electronic energy level
Bond rotations can subtract energy from an electronic energy
