Answer:
Only one side of the Moon is visible from Earth because the Moon rotates on its axis at the same rate that the Moon orbits the Earth – a situation known as synchronous rotation, or tidal locking. The Moon is directly illuminated by the Sun, and the cyclically varying viewing conditions cause the lunar phases.

Ans : We see only one side of the moon always because of the following reasons:
● The moon revolves round the earth in 27 days.
● It spins on its axis exactly in 27 days.
● Hence the place on the moon corresponds to the earth always. because of these reasons we see only one side of the moon always.
