Answer:

As the Moon orbits our planet, its varying position means that the Sun lights up different regions, creating the illusion that the Moon is changing shape over time.

Explanation:

This is because it rotates once on its axis in exactly the same time it takes to orbit Earth – 27 days and seven hours.
