    B)  g and d            

    C)                                  g and e             

    D)        f and e                                   

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Sun is a huge star that gives us light and heat. Moon is a satellite of Earth and it neither produces heat nor light. It shines by reflecting back the sunlight falling on it. When Moon changes its position, the lighted up portion of Moon (which is the visible part) either decreases or increases and hence it appears as if Moon is changing its shape. Both Sun and Moon appear to rise from East and set in West due to Earth's rotation from West to East.
