Solution

The correct option is D
A solar eclipse happens when the Moon gets in the way of the Sun's light and casts its shadow on Earth. That means during the day, the Moon moves over the Sun and it gets dark. It can occur only on new Moon day. Total solar eclipse occur when the Moon completely covers the Sun and a partial eclipse occurs when the Moon covers a portion of the Sun. Annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon appears smaller than the Sun and annulus of sunlight remains visible during eclipse.
