4. When you look up to the sky, it appears as a dark circle with halo light at its edges moving across the face of the sun. As it does, depending on the relative position of the person on earth – that determines where they are on the umbra or penumbra of the eclipse, the place becomes a daytime twilight (umbra) or partial twilight (penumbra).
5. A new moon is formed when the moon is in between the sun and the earth. This is converse to the case of a lunar eclipse where the earth is between the sun and moon. In a new moon, the face of the moon that is faced towards the earth is dark because it is not lit by the sun. It is important to note that a solar eclipse is not formed because the moon’s orbit, around the earth, is tilted at an angle.

Answer:
This question is incomplete but the completed question is below
eeds that are planted upside down are still able to grow into mature plants. Which explanation best explains this phenomenon?
(a)The roots change into branches, and the branches turn into roots.
(b)The roots grow toward the force of gravity, and the shoots grow away.
(c)The plant will become a smaller version of a mature plant.
(d)Roots always grow toward the dark, and shoots grow toward the light.
Two options appear to be correct here: options B and D
Explanation:
Regardless of the direction the seed is planted, the seed has the ability to re-position itself via the help of growth hormones that respond to gravity and redirect the seed into the proper orientation. However, after re-orientation of the seed, the root grows toward the direction of gravity (a process known as gravitropism) while the shoot grows toward the direction of sunlight (a process known as phototropism). Even though two options appear to be correct here, the most correct option based on he question is b
