What is responsible for the apparent motion of the Moon in the sky from East to West? A) The rotation of Earth about its axis B) The revolution of Earth around the Sun C) The rotation of the Moon about its axis D) The revolution of the Moon around Earth

As a result, although the Moon is moving to the east relative to the stars, the much faster westward motion of the sky is carrying it to the west, so despite its eastward motion relative to the center of the Earth, it rises in theeast and sets in the west, just like any other celestial body.
