Answer:

During spring tides, the gravity of the sun and moon pull on the Earth either from the same direction or from opposite directions, producing higher tidal ranges. During neap tides, the sun and moon are at right angles with respect to Earth. This lessens their pull on Earth, producing lower tidal ranges.

As the earth and moon move, the moons gravitational force pulls on the ocean causing it to bulge off the surface of the earth but from our point of view it looks as if the water level is riding and lowering.

Today, Shintoism is practiced alongside __________.
nikdorinn [45]
The answer is B. Buddhism. This is because Buddhism, which started in India, came to Japan and became a major religion. The local Japanese people already had their own religion (which focused on nature's spirits and the spirits of their ancestors), so they took some of the beliefs of Buddhism and mixed it with their own cultural beliefs. I hope this helps!

List an example on Earth of the feature faulting creates.
NikAS [45]
Normal fault - a dip-slip fault in which the block above the fault has moved downward relative to the block below. This type of faulting occurs in response to extension and is often observed in the Western United States Basin and Range Province and along oceanic ridge systems.

thrust fault - a dip-slip fault in which the upper block, above the fault plane, moves up and over the lower block. This type of faulting is common in areas of compression, such as regions where one plate is being subducted under another as in Japan. When the dip angle is shallow, a reverse fault is often described as a thrust fault.

strike-slip fault - a fault on which the two blocks slide past one another. The San Andreas Fault is an example of a right lateral fault.

Strike-slip Fault Animation

A left-lateral strike-slip fault is one on which the displacement of the far block is to the left when viewed from either side.

A right-lateral strike-slip fault is one on which the displacement of the far block is to the right when viewed from either side.
