Which of the following properties of light causes eclipses?
None. Eclipses are a result of the moons position relative to the earth and the sun. Solar and lunar are 2 different types of eclipses. Simply put an eclipse is the result of light from the sun being blocked by the moon from our perspective here on Earth.
What is an eclipse called when the moon blocks the sun's light?
A Solar Eclipse

When the Earth's shadow falls on the moon the shadow causes a?
lunar eclipse
What role do shadows play in eclipses?
It provides the light seen around the Moon, in a solar eclipse. It provides the light the Earth blocks out, during a lunar eclipse. Light leaks around the Earth, in a lunar eclipse. Since Earth's atmosphere absorbs and scatters blue, the light reaching the Moon is red, almost a brick red when you look at the eclipsed Moon.

What causes the moon to apear a different colour during lunar eclipse?
The different colours that we see are the result of different lengths of light wave. During a lunar eclipse, as the celestial body causing the eclipse passes in front of the moon, its atmosphere causes what is called, "a refraction", or bending of the original lightwave. As this light is bent, its wavelength is, therefore, lengthened and alters according to the refractory 'power' of the phenomenon itself as it occurs, and the different wavelength of light reaching the earth emits a colour appearance that is now different from its original colour.
