Answer 1

Let me first state that this question is not entirely clear. Are you asking for the precipitation type for a, b, and c or are you asking for the the precipitation type for only one case?

I will tell you that convective precipitation is not the same as orographic precipitation. However, relief precipitation is same as orographic precipitation. Overall, the form of precipitation is dependent on type of lift and temperatures at the clouds, area between clouds and the surface, and the surface.

EDIT:

a) Light showers, drizzle, or a wintry mix.

b) Rain or some type of wintry precipitation.

c) Rain, heavy rain, freezing rain, or sleet.
