Question
describe one of these kinds of patterns. (example: a full moon occurs every 28 days.) (1 point)
the sun rises in the east every morning and the sun sets in the west every evening.
b. what rule does the pattern you picked above point to? (example: the appearance of a full moon every 28 days means that the moon orbits the earth every 28 days.) (1 point)
The sun's daily rising in the east and setting in the west is a result of the Earth's rotation on its axis. The Earth rotates from west to east, which makes the sun appear to rise in the east and set in the west. This is a consistent pattern that occurs every day.
