Answer: The correct statement is that the Last Quarter Moon (rises near midnight and sets near midday).

Explanation:

Phases of the moon also called the LUNAR PHASE can be defined as the different shades of illumination on the moon as seen from the earth. The moon is the natural satellite of the earth that illuminates upon reflection of light from the sun. This means it doesn't have power to shine on its own. When carefully observed, there are times it gets dark and beings to glow brighter over a period of time. This occurs because as the moon completes its four weeks lunar cycle round the earth, how much of its face we see illuminated by sunlight depends on the angle the Sun makes with the Moon.

There are 8 main types of the moon phases these includes:

--> New moon: This is when the moon is not visible to the earth because it's between the earth and the sun. It rises at sunrise and sets at sunset.

--> The waxing crescent: At this phase the moon gets brighter and illuminated from the sun that a crescent shape is seen.

--> First quarter: this occurs one week after the new moon. The moon rises at noon and sets at midnight.

--> The waxing gibbous: This occurs after the first quarter phase where more than half of the lit part of the moon is seen.

--> Full moon: This occurs when the moon and the sun are opposite each other. That is way it is said to rise at sunset and sets at sun rise.

--> The waning gibbous: this occurs when more than half of the lit part of the moon gradually becomes darker

--> Third quarter ( Last Quarter): The moon rises at midnight and sets at noon. This occurs a week after the full moon.

--> The waning crescent: This occurs after the last quarter phase where a very thin fading crescent shaped moon is seen, just before the Moon is invisible again at the start of the cycle, the new moon.

A wave is any disturbance that transfers energy from one location to the other via a substance called medium. It is important to note that a wave only conveys energy and not matter. For example, sound wave is a type of wave that carries sound energy from one place to another via mediums such as water, air etc.

Hence, according to this question, a wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and WITHOUT A TRANSFER OF MATTER.
