Answer:

Eclipse is sometime full and sometime partial because the moon's orbit around the earth is not perfect. If the earth is in moon umbra when it covers the earth, you will see full solar eclipse but if earth is in moon's penumbra then you will see partial solar eclipse and same is with lunar eclipse.
