What is the best description of the Bohr model of the atom?

A.) The atom consists of a positively charged material with negatively charged electrons embedded within it.

B.) The atom consists of a nucleus with electrons orbiting randomly around it.

C.) The atom consists of a nucleus with electrons orbiting at specific energy levels. Absorbed photons cause electrons to jump between energy levels.

D.) The atom consists of a nucleus surrounded by a region containing electrons. Electrons cannot be located exactly within this region, but the probability that they will be found in an area can be stated.
