Answer
<em>C. The Moon orbits the Earth about once a month</em>
Over billions of years the earth’s gravitational field has tidally locked the moon in orbit so that its rotation about its axis is the same as that of its orbit around the earth.
This process is still continuing as the earth transfers some of its angular momentum to the moon lifting it to a higher orbit by a couple of centimeters a year. As it rises, its takes a fraction longer to complete an orbit, and its rotational speed slows down slightly to match.
The eventual conclusion of this is that the earth also would become tidally locked to the moon, and they will both face each other permanently. But this is going to take that long that the sun will probably have destroyed both the earth and the moon in its red giant phase before this happens.

Explanation:
1. Annuals are the plants that complete their life cycle in one season or one year. These are the herbaceous plants that grow, flower and die in one season. Examples of annuals are geranium, marigold, etc.
2. In a flower, the whorl of petals is called corolla while the whorl of the sepal is known as calyx. In flowers, calyx and corolla together make perianth. The calyx is outer to corolla in a perianth.
3. The fruit is a matured and ripened ovary that provides protection to the seeds present in it. Fruits are formed after fertilization and may contain one or more seeds. Tomatoes are the simple berry fruits while cucumber is pepo, the modified berries. Broccoli is the flower head while celery is the edible leaf.
The stage of interphase, b/c the cells are still growing
