What causes the moons appearance change?
The moon's appearance changes due to its phases, which result from its position relative to the Earth and the Sun. As the moon orbits the Earth, different portions of its surface are illuminated by sunlight, causing it to appear as a crescent, half, or full moon. This cyclical process takes about 29.5 days to complete, known as a lunar month. Additionally, the moon's tilt and the Earth's atmosphere can also affect how we perceive its brightness and color.
Which motion causes moon changes?
The motion of the Moon orbiting the Earth, and the Earth and the Moon both orbiting the Sun, constantly alters the appearance of the sunlight striking the Moon's surface, as viewed from Earth. This changes in light and shadow gives the different phrases of the Moon.

Why is the moons appearance as seen from earth changes in a monthly cycle?
The moons appearance changes because what we see from the earths surface is a reflection influenced by three diferent sources the sun, earth, and moon. The reflection we see is completely dependent upon the given position of these three bodies and that is why the appearance appears to change. However, if you use a telescope you should find the surface of the moon doesn't in fact change what changes is the shaded area! Hope this helps!

Why does the moons appearance look different during these times?
It's because of the orbits. If you mean the size, the Moon NEVER changes in size or orbit distance that much. It's because your brain is fooling you and you compare the moons' size to other objects in the sky such as clouds and / or buildings.
