Explanation:

The moon phases follow a sequential cycle starting from the New Moon. Waxing phases grow in illuminated area, waning phases shrink. The full sequence is: New Moon → Waxing Crescent → First Quarter → Waxing Gibbous → Full Moon → Waning Gibbous → Third Quarter → Waning Crescent. For each phase, shade the dark portion black and lit portion yellow as viewed from Earth:

• Waxing Crescent: Small right lit section
• 1st Quarter: Half right lit section
• Waxing Gibbous: Large right lit section
• Full Moon: Entire circle lit
• Waning Gibbous: Large left lit section
• 3rd Quarter: Half left lit section
• Waning Crescent: Small left lit section

Answer:

1. Waxing Crescent (shade small right section yellow, rest black)
2. 1st Quarter (shade right half yellow, left half black)
3. Waxing Gibbous (shade large right section yellow, small left black)
4. Full Moon (shade entire circle yellow, no black)
5. Waning Gibbous (shade large left section yellow, small right black)
6. 3rd Quarter (shade left half yellow, right half black)
7. Waning Crescent (shade small left section yellow, rest black)
