The right answer is C. sex cells.

Like all cells, a somatic cell can mutate.

* A somatic mutation, if it is "viable" (if it does not kill the cell, organ or organism that carries it), and if it is not controlled by the body (apoptosis, confinement of the mutated cell) can give rise to new identical cell lines, thus carrying the same mutation.

* In so-called evolved animals (which can not clone naturally), this mutation affects only the organ or the organism concerned, but will not be transmitted to the offspring of the individual.

The phases of the moon are caused by the earth's rotation, the moon's orbit around the earth, and also depends on the earth's position relative to the sun and the moon (since the sun is the source of the moon's light).

There are different phases of the moon: new moon (all dark), waxing crescent (a growing crescent), waxing gibbous (a growing gibbous, which means about half of the moon can be seen), full moon, waning gibbous (shrinking gibbous), waning crescent (shrinking crescent), and new moon.

Half of the moon is always lit up by the sun, unless the sun is eclipsed by the earth.
