Is it true that a total lunar eclipse occur when the moon passes through earths prenumbra?
No, a total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes completely through Earth's umbra, the central, darkest part of its shadow. During this event, the Earth is positioned directly between the Sun and the Moon, blocking direct sunlight from reaching the Moon. The penumbra is the outer part of the shadow, and while a lunar eclipse can occur when the Moon passes through the penumbra (resulting in a penumbral lunar eclipse), it does not cause the dramatic darkening seen in a total lunar eclipse.
How do semi lunar valves work?
Semi-lunar valves, located in the heart at the entrance of the aorta and pulmonary artery, function to prevent the backflow of blood into the ventricles after contraction. They open when the ventricles contract, allowing blood to flow into the aorta and pulmonary artery. Once the ventricles relax, the valves close due to the pressure change, ensuring that blood does not return to the heart. This mechanism is crucial for maintaining unidirectional blood flow and efficient circulation throughout the body.

Why does the earth not block the sun from reaching the moon during a full moon?
The earth does not block the sun during *most* full moons because it is not *directly* between the sun and moon.
If the earth does block the sun from the moon, then the earth must be directly between the sun and moon. This will happen at full moon, since the three must be in a line, and you would see the full moon, then the eclipse, then the moon fully illuminated again.
That the earth revolves around the sun and the moon revolves around earth
Each time the moon revolves behind the Earth it will pass through the Earth's shadow. True False?
False. Usually the Moon passes north or south of Earth's shadow.
Because at most full moons the Moon passes above or below the Sun and not actually right in front of it. That's because the Moon has a tilted orbit. I can't draw a diagram on here so you'll have to do your own homework :)
