Hi Sara,
As the help page for anova.lm says,

"Specifying a single object gives a sequential analysis of variance table".

That most likely also the answer to your second question.

The anova function can be used to compare nested models, and this provides the 
flexibility to test arbitrary hypotheses, including all the ones given by 
different "types" of ANOVA tables. You may also find the Anova() function in 
the car package helpful.

Best,
Ista
