Yes, exactly.
Gravity provides a centripetal force on the Moon, helping it stay in orbit around Earth. TRUE!!! -iRLANDA♥
Centripetal force wants to move something towards the centre. So in a satellites case that would be the Gravity of the Earth. If you had a rock tied to a string you were spinning around, the Centripetal Force would be the tension in the string acting towards the centre.
GRAVITY!A2. Centripetal force. The velocity of the satellite around the earth causes centripetal, force which balances with the gravity, holding it in a circular orbit around the earth.
all objects in this universe are attracted towards each other and we call that force of attraction gravity. just imagine there are two balls in your hands, one big and other one small. the big ball is earth while the small one is moon. now join both with a piece of thread such that the two balls can be separated from each other only by cutting the thread. now come out of your imaginative world and accept that in real life also the moon and earth are joined to each other not by apiece of thread but by centripetal force if this force is removed both earth and moon will fly off in a line tangent to their circular path. now i hope you have understood this concept.
As the moon orbits the Earth, the force of gravity acting upon the moon provides the centripetal force required for circular motion.

It doesn't.Gravity is one thing that can provide centripetal force.Another one is a string, like the one that keeps the yo-yo spinning in a circle around your head.
It can be. A centripetal force is not fundamental (such as gravity), it is the generic name given to a force that keeps objects moving in orbits (or circles). In the case of the Sun and the Earth, gravity is the centripetal force that keeps the Earth in orbit around the Sun.
gravity
The gravitation of the central body. For example, for the Moon moving around the Earth, the centripetal force is the gravity between Earth and Moon.

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking, but centripetal force is just a name given to any force that causes circular motion. Swing a rock on the end of a string and the string tension is the centripetal force. Drive a car around a flat circular track and the friction between the tires and the road is the centripetal force. Put a satellite in orbit and gravity is the centripetal force.
Gravity, in balance with centripetal reaction force.
Centripetal force is a force that makes a body follow a curved path. An example of centripetal force is gravity making something in space orbit Earth. Mud flying in circles from a tire going down the road is centripetal force.
The gravity resulting from the Earth's mass.
