Option D. When Earth is between the sun and moon, we see a full moon.

Explanation:

Full moon is the lunar phase in which moon is fully illuminated.

If the earth comes between sun and moon, full moon appears. When moon comes between earth and sun, this is called solar eclipse while when the moon passes behind the earth, this called lunar eclipse.
