What is the definition of LUNAR ECLIPSE?

• Occurs when the shadow of the moon falls on Earth, blocking the view of the Sun.

• Occurs when the moon moves through Earth’s shadow.

• The outer part of a shadow such as the shadow cast by Earth or the moon in which sunlight is only partially blocked.

• A shadow that blocks sunlight, such as the conical section in the shadow of the Earth or the moon.

What is the definition of TIDE?

• Occurs when the moon moves through Earth’s shadow.

What is the definition of DEPENDENT VARIABLE?

• In a scientific investigation, the factor that changes as a result of manipulation of one or more independent variables.

• The process of obtaining information by using the senses; the information obtained by using the senses.

• The sum of the items in a data set divided by the number of items in the set; also called average.
