The moon’s surface is dry and irregular.
The moon’s surface has mountains and oceans.
The moon’s surface is exactly like Earth's surface.
10. Why can you never see the far side of the moon from Earth? (1 point)
because Earth is spinning too quickly
because it cannot be seen during daylight hours

11. During what phase of the moon can a lunar eclipse occur? (1 point)
new moon
first quarter
waxing gibbous
full moon

14. Under which of the following circumstances do neap tides occur? (1 point)
during the new moon phase
when the sun’s pull is in the same direction as the moon’s pull
when the sun’s pull is at a right angle to the moon’s pull
during the full moon phase
15. Why doesn’t the moon move away from Earth? (1 point)
because the moon’s orbit is too small
because Earth’s gravity is strong
because the moon has a large mass, and this creates a greater inertia for the moon than for Earth

true
false
