1)
a) B
b) blueshifted
c) toward the observer

2)
a) C
b) redshifted
c) away from the observer

3)
a) A and D
b) In situation A, the star is not moving relative to the observer, so there is no Doppler shift. In situation D, the star is moving perpendicular to the line of sight to the observer; since there is no component of motion toward or away from the observer, there is no change in wavelength and thus no Doppler shift.
