Solution
The correct option is D That side of Earth faces away from the Sun The Earth moves around the Sun, but it also rotates while moving. When rotating, the side facing the Sun receives light from the Sun, making it daytime. The other side facing away from the Sun doesn't get any light and so is night time there
