Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The stars don't move, but earth does, and when earth revolves around the sun, the constellations seem like they are moving. (if you take a time-lapse of the night sky in alaska, it's rly beautiful)

Answer and Explanation:

The answers would be:

A and C

This is because the Earth revolves around the sun, so we are only get a view of part of outer space, not the entirety of it, as the Sun is blocking another part of our view.

B Isn't correct because the constellations are the same, its just that the Earth moves around the sun, so our view of the constellations shift.

D Isn't correct the constellations don't move, and it doesn't explain why we see a change in constellations.

E Isn't correct because again, constellations (which are made up of far away stars) don't revolve around the sun.
