The reason why lunar and solar eclipses do not occur every month is because; the plane of orbit of the moon around the earth is not same as that of earth around the sun.

<h3>Why don't lunar and solar eclipses occur every month?</h3>

When the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, there's solar eclipse while when the earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon, there's lunar eclipse.

Hence, because the plane of orbit of the moon around the earth is not same as that of earth around the sun, we do not have lunar and solar eclipses every month.

The moon's orbital plane is different from that of the earth's orbit around the sun due to which lunar and solar eclipses do not occur every month.

<h3 /><h3>What is a solar eclipse?</h3>

When the moon passes in front of Earth and the sun, it creates a solar eclipse and casts a shadow across the globe.

Only during the new moon phase, when the moon travels squarely between the sun and Earth and casts shadows on its surface, can a solar eclipse occur.

Due to the moon's orbit being five degrees off-center from Earth's orbit around the Sun, lunar eclipses do not happen every month and the Moon often passes above or below the shadow.

Lunar eclipses would happen every month if there were no tilt. Eclipses of the sun and the moon happen equally often.

Hence lunar and solar eclipses aren't coming every month.

Where will water evaporate from?

Water will evaporate from any water source and life forms. The answer is letter C. An application of heat into water will cause the water to evaporate. This is because the intermolecular forces of attraction of water can be broken by sufficient energy application.
