Answer 2

ANSWER:

False

EXPLANATION:  

    Full moon is the phase of the lunar where the Moon appears completely illuminated from Earth's side. When there is a full moon, the Moon, the "Earth, and the Sun" are in alignment. However, the moon and the Earth is opposite to each other, and the complete sun-lit portion of the moon faces us, that is,the illumined portion of the Moon faces the Earth.

   The "shadowed portion" of the Moon is completely concealed from view. The Moon is completely illumined by direct sunlight. This implies that the Moon, the Earth, and the Sun are approximately in a straight line, with the Earth in the between the Moon and the Sun. The Moon which we can view is extremely bright from the sunlight reflecting off it.
