Solution

The correct option is C spring tides
Tide is the rhythmic rise and fall of ocean water twice in a day. Their level keeps changing based on the relative positions of Earth, Sun, and Moon. Tides are highest when the Sun, Moon, and Earth are in a straight line. This happens on Full Moon and New Moon days. Such tides are called spring tides.
