Answer 1

Based on your description, the model shows the white half of the Moon that is lit up by the Sun. In this case, if the entire half visible from Earth is illuminated, it represents a **Full Moon**. If only part of it is illuminated, different phases apply, but since you've indicated a fully lit half, the correct answer is:

**Full Moon**.
