Explain the cause of daily tides. What human activities do the tides affect and how?
Fynjy0 [20]

Tides are caused by the specific alignment of the Moon, Earth, and Sun.

When aligned a certain way the the gravitational pulls basically share and add on to each other creating tidal waves.

An example of a certain alignment would be spring tides, which happen during a New or Full moon.

Examples: Boat sailors must watch out for tides and make sure to plan their sailing journeys according to the tide. They don't want to be caught against a tide, especially small board sailors.

Also fisherman keep note of tides since some sea life rely on tides for survival and feeding or some fish simply follow the movement of the tides. Fisherman use tides as an indication of when it'd be best to go fishing.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME OUT........​
Elena L [17]

I think the answer is D, the radiative zone because, energy generated by nuclear fusion in the core moves outward as electromagnetic radiation. in other words, Energy is in the core but it takes radioactive waves to make it reach earth.

I don't think it's A, B C, because,

the corona has to do with the light of the sun

gamma zone is an example of radiation

the core is the base of the energy, where it's all stored

radiative zone makes it reach earth

That would be the choice I would choose. I hope this helps you.
