The first one would definitely be a Lunar Eclipse (perfect example).

The second one is a clear example of a Solar Eclipse.

Honestly that has nothing to do with the moon though the tilt causes the seasons.

The last one is as said the answer, due to the fact of the revolution of the Moon.

Answer 3

The `honestly one` is for the third one, sorry didn't make that clear.
