The moon is illuminated by the sun's light even during the night because it reflects sunlight. The moon does not produce its own light, so its appearance changes depending on its position relative to the sun and Earth.
How nighttime and daytime relates with the sun?
because when the sun is facing one side of the Earth it is daytime when there is no sunlight facing the other half of the Earth it is nighttime.
A full moon happens when?
When the side of the moon that faces Earth (the same side of the moon always faces Earth) is fully bathed in sunlight. The Moon experiences day and night cycles, but it takes 28 days for the moon to complete a day/night cycle because of the Moon's relatively slow spin (which is what keeps the same side of the Moon facing Earth).

What is the phrase when you see the entire side of the moon facing the earth?
The side of the moon we see is properly called the "near side" as we always see this face. The other side, facing away from the earth, is the "far side". As different regions of the moon see sunlight as it orbits the earth, it is usually incorrect to call any side the "dark side"
Is the following sentence true or false have the Moon is almost always in sunlight?
The sentence is true. The Moon is almost always in sunlight because it is reflecting the Sun's light. Only during the lunar phases, such as the new moon, does the part of the Moon facing Earth receive minimal sunlight. However, the entire Moon is illuminated by the Sun at different angles as it orbits the Earth.
How are full moons made?
A full moon occurs when the moon is at an angle which allows the entire area facing the observer to reflect sunlight. All other phases occur because the earth is casting a shadow on the moon.

When the side of the moon facing the earth receives no sunlight it is called a new moon
When earth is facing the sun it is experiencing?
When Earth is facing the Sun, it is experiencing daytime, characterized by sunlight and warmer temperatures. This exposure to solar radiation causes various phenomena, including photosynthesis in plants and the heating of the Earth's surface. The side of Earth that is not facing the Sun experiences nighttime, where temperatures generally drop and darkness prevails.
Is sunlight always shining on half of Earth?
Sunlight is always shining on one half of the Earth as the planet rotates on its axis, causing day and night. This rotation creates a cycle of 24 hours with half of the globe facing the sun ("day side") and the other half facing away from it ("night side").
