b. reflects visible light.

The surface of the moon reflects the sunlight it receives and that is why we perceive it at night. Although it seems very bright, especially during the full moon, its albedo is between 3% and 12%, that is, the percentage of radiation reflected by its surface with respect to the total solar radiation that falls on it.
