Answer:

The earth is between the sun and the moon

Explanation:

The Moon is non luminous that is doesn't generate light by itself so it depends on light from the sun so when its path through which it taps light from the sun is totally covered it means the Earth is closer to the moon than the Sun so that the Earth gets all off its light leaving nothing for the Moon and in this case the Moon is thrown to total darkness.

Answer:

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes directly behind the Earth into its umbra (shadow). This can occur only when the sun, Earth and moon are aligned (in "syzygy") exactly, or very closely so, with the Earth in the middle.

Nady [450]

Answer:

A and E are the correct.

Explanation:

Examples of the structures that determine function:

a) Chloroplasts only found in plant cells. They work to fix the CO2 in the presence of light energy (sunlight) and convert the reactants into sugar molecules (carbohydrates) that can be used by cells for metabolic functioning.

e) Sperm is the male reproductive cell. Motile sperm cells have a tail-like structure that typically move via flagella and requires a water medium in order to swim toward the egg for fertilization.

Other options are not correct because they don't explain their function according to their structure.
