Answer:

The answer is <u>Moon Phase.</u>

<u>The moon phases</u> are the changes in the portion of light seen on the satellite due to the position with respect to the Earth and the sun.

Its lighted portion decreases for 2 weeks and then increases again for 2 weeks.

Each portion of light illuminated on the moon has its own name.
