<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 ( $90\º$ ), being the gravity attraction on the masses of water the minimum. This happens in the crescent and wanning phases.

Seafood also strengthen the immune system through their antioxidants.

Rapid advances in fishing technology have led to the dramatic increase over the last 50 years in how many fish we are able to catch. Most people in the fishing business now use factory ships, in place of fishing vessels. These ships are can stay at the sea for several weeks and they have all the necessary equipment that can be used to either freeze of tin fish that they catch using their hunting ships.

The factory ships need to get full before they can return to base and this has caused over a 7% growth in catches every year.
