Question

How does the position of the moon relative to the sun and earth affect its appearance

Answer 1

Explanation:

The relative positions of our Sun, Earth, and Moon, cause these changes. As our Moon orbits around Earth, the side facing the Sun is always illuminated, just like Earth's daylight side is illuminated by the Sun. ... From Earth, the Moon's surface looks dark because the illuminated side is facing away from Earth.
