Answer:

The answer is explained below.

Explanation:

Equinox comes from two Latin words: <em>aequi</em> (equal) and <em>nox</em> (night.) Also, equinoxes indicate the transition from one season to another: for example, the vernal equinox indicates the end of the winter and it is also considered the first day of spring. Due to this, equinoxes represent a change in the seasons, making option C the answer. The others are indicated below:

a change in ocean tides

a partial lunar eclipse

a change in the seasons

a change in lunar phases

a period during which Earth’s axis is tilted at the maximum.
