Looks you got the first one; 1, 3, 9, 27, 81, 243, ... are the powers of three.

0, 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111... are the integers expressed in binary.

2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, ... is a part of the Fibonacci sequence (each term is the sum of its two predecessors).

1, 3, 9, 19, 33, 51 etc is a sequence where you add 4x-2 to the previous number in the sequence, and x is the position in the sequence

eg to 1 you add (4*1 - 2) = 2 to get 3
to 3 - the 2nd in the sequence - you add (4*2 - 2) = 6 to get 9
to 9 - the 3rd in the sequence - you add (4*3 - 2) = 10 to get 19 and so on....

1st one, alternate: 1, 3, 9, 19, 33,... adding alternate even numbers 2 6 10 14 etc.

2nd one, alternate: 0, 1, 10, 100... powers of 10.

3rd one, alternate: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13... prime numbers.

for the last one, you can add 2 to 3. then add 3 to five. not necessarily add the two preceders but add one more. first u added 2, then 3, then 4. ect
