Solution
The correct option is A
Total solar eclipse
Explanation of the correct option:
In the case of Option A:
The four types of solar eclipses are total, partial, annual, and hybrid.
The Baily's beads effect, also known as the Diamond ring effect, is a phenomenon that occurs during total and annular solar eclipses.
During a total solar eclipse, the diamond ring effect happened at the start and conclusion of totality. It appears to be a ring with sparkling diamonds on it as the final rays of sunshine filter through the valleys on the moon's limb and the faint corona surrounding the Sun barely starts to become apparent.
