Yes. Not only is the moon's orbit elliptical, but the size of the orbit is slowly increasing as it absorbs energy from earth's rotation via tidal effects.
Just about as far as it is from Earth. Please note that the distance from Earth to Moon is quite insignificant compared with the distances to the Sun, or to other planets. So, how far is Venus from Earth? Unfortunately there's no fixed answer because the distance is always changing, as the planets move in their orbits.
D. Alignment of the Universe does not contribute to the changing of seasons. The changing of seasons is primarily influenced by the tilt of the Earth's axis as it orbits the Sun (B), along with the varying distance between the Earth and the Sun (C) throughout the year. The distance between the Earth and the Moon (A) mainly affects tides on Earth.
This has been answered several times. At any moment the sun can only illuminate the side of the moon facing the sun. As the moon goes around the earth (in just under a month) we are able to see none, little, most, or all of this illuminated face. So for half the time it grows in apparent illuminated area, and for half the time it then decreases.
The moon's orbit around the Earth is elliptical, meaning it is not a perfect circle but rather an oval shape. This results in the moon's distance from the Earth changing throughout its orbit.
Varying from the the distance from the Earth to the Moon + the distance from the sun to the earth + the distance from mercury to the sun, to the distance from the earth to the sun - the distance from mercury to the sun - the distance from the earth to the moon

The moon is not changing it's shape!
This question can not be awnsered because it is a moon not a planet which means that moons are all changing in distance from the sun but planets stay the the same distance from the sun
They are called phases of the moon. They are caused by the moon orbiting the earth and changing its relative angle to the sun
The Earth's distance from the moon or Mars is always changing. The closest the moon can get to Earth is 225,622 miles. The farthest it can get is 252,088 miles. The closest possible distance from Earth to Mars is 33.9 million miles. Therefore the Earth is always much closer to the moon than Mars, no matter where they are in orbit.
