Solution
The correct answer is C. "Because the moon will fully conceal the sun, leaving the corona visible from Earth".
During a total solar eclipse, the moon passes between the Earth and the sun. When this happens, the moon can fully block the sun's bright face. This event allows observers on Earth to see the fainter solar corona, the sun's outer atmosphere, which is usually obscured by the bright light of the sun's surface. The corona is visible as a halo around the moon.
