Answers & Comments
Answer:
D
Explanation:
During its elliptical journey around Earth, the Moon moves through 'phases', the term we use to describe how much of the lunar disc appears illuminated as seen from Earth. In fact, the Moon is always half lit, we just don't see it that way. Whatever phase we're seeing, the opposite phase is happening on the far side.
