Question

select the correct alternative:

• A. 'A' only
• B. 'B' only
• C. Both A and B
• D. Neither A nor B

Answer 1

The correct option is D Neither A nor B

Neap tides are caused when , the sun and moon are at right angles to each other and as a result of this the bulge of the ocean caused by the sun partially cancels out the bulge of the ocean caused by the moon. This produces moderate tides , meaning that high tides are a little lower and low tides are a little higher than average. Neap tides occur during the first and third quarter moon, when the moon appears "half full."

Neither A nor B .
