Model of the Sun, Mars and one of Mars' Moons, Deimos

4. The diagram (see diagram attached) represents a model of the sun, Mars and one of Mars' moons, Deimos. Please look at the model and determine which object looks most like Deimos to the person in the model who is observing from the pole of Mars.

(a) Answer A
(b) Answer B
(c) Answer C
(d) Answer D
(e) Answer E

The correct answer is (a) Answer A.

This is true because the person standing in the diagram is facing Deimos and the figure A depicts the left half of the moon that is not shaded and the half that will be seen by the person. The other half (left side) is dark.

I hope this helps.
