Which statement correctly compares what occurs when molecules absorb photons in the microwave region with what occurs when molecules absorb photons in the infrared region? Microwave photons cause the molecules to increase their rotational energy states, whereas infrared photons cause the molecules to increase their vibrational energy states.

Microwave photons cause the molecules to increase their rotational energy states, whereas infrared photons cause the molecules to increase their vibrational energy states.
