B. molecules
Step-by-step solution
Band spectrum is defined as a molecular spectrum consisting of numerous closely spaced, often unresolved emission lines or absorption lines which occur across a limited range of frequencies. Each line represents an increment of energy due to a change in the rotational state of the molecule. Bands caused by titanium oxide, zirconium, and carbon compounds are characteristic of low-temperature stars.
