<h2>
Answer: They are extra-high tides and extra-low tides.</h2>
Explanation:
Tides are periodic movements of the great masses of water on our planet as part of the gravitational attraction exerted by the moon and the sun on Earth.
In this sense, there are two very special cases: The Spring and Neap tides.
<u>Spring tides </u>
Occur when there is a full moon or new moon, which makes the <u>tides higher.</u> During these lunar phases, the Moon, the Earth and the Sun are aligned and the gravitational attraction power is greater.
<u>Neap tides </u>
Occur when the moon, the earth and the sun form a right angle (
), being the gravity attraction on the masses of water the minimum. This happens in the crescent and wanning phases.

Answer:
The answer is b. false
Explanation:
The answer is false simply because countries in the western part of the world, first of all in Europe and Northern America have passes this process of rapid urbanization already. Most of the countries in the Eastern hemisphere, countries of Eastern Africa and Asia are going through that process. That is why countries such as Ethiopia, Kuwait, Singapore and others are having the biggest rate of urbanization.
The correct answer is - Watershed.
The drainage basis are places in which all the water in an area is accumulated and ends up in the same place. The drainage systems are divided by highlands, which can vary from small hills to very high mountains, depending on the topography of the place.
The line on the highland that is separating the drainage systems is called watershed. The watershed is simply a line stretching on the highest parts of a highland, thus having a slope on each side.
