Answer:

At both new and full moons

Explanation:

    Depending on the position of the two stars in relation to our planet, the tides have different behaviors. This is where the lunar phases come in. When the earth, moon and sun are aligned - or, as astronomers say, in opposition or conjunction - the gravitational pull of the latter two adds up, amplifying their effect on the sea mass.

    NEW MOON: When the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun align, the gravitational pull exerted by the two stars on the oceans adds to each other, generating sea currents that cause maximum sea level elevation toward this line. It is the time of the highest tides, called tides of sizigia or maximum

    FULL MOON: About two weeks after the New Moon, our satellite travels back to a position where it aligns with the sun and the earth. This combination brings a new wave of high tides. In Santos beaches, the sea level can rise around 1 meter in this period

2. The mathematical association between the actual distance on the ground and its demonstration on map is called scale.  

3. Geographers utilize direction and distance to illustrate relative location, which is the position of one place with reference to another.  

4. On a map or globe, the exact positioning of places is predicted by a universally accepted grid system. The system comprises lines of latitudes demonstrated by parallels, and the lines of longitude are demonstrated by meridians.  

5. The initiation point on the grid system for finding the latitudinal location is the zero degrees latitude or equator, while the initiation point for finding the longitudinal location is the prime meridian.  

6. All lines of longitude meet at the poles.  

7. All the lines of latitude are parallel to the equator.
