Answer:

Photon energy is the energy carried by a single photon.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of energy is directly proportional to the photon's electromagnetic frequency and thus, equivalently, is inversely proportional to the wavelength. The higher the photon's frequency, the higher its energy.
