Answer:

A <em>mixed semi-diurnal</em> tidal pattern has two high and two low tides of unequal heights during each lunar day.

A <em>diurnal</em> tidal pattern has one high and one low tide during each lunar day.

A <em>semi-diurnal</em> tidal pattern has two high and two low tides of approximately equal heights during each lunar day.

Explanation:

Mixed semi-diurnal pattern:

A mixed semi-diurnal tide cycle has four tides each lunar day. This cycle manifests as a succession of two high and two low tides, both of which are <u>different in size.</u>

<em>Diurnal inequality</em> is a term that refers to the <u>difference in height</u> between two high/low tides.

A region that is frequently affected by semi-diurnal tide cycles is the West Coast of the United States.

Diurnal pattern:

On the other hand, a diurnal tide cycle only has two tides each lunar day – one high tide and one low tide, although for a <u>long period</u>. <em>The tidal period</em>, which is the period <u>from one high (or low) tide to the next</u>, during the diurnal cycle, is 24 hours and 50 minutes – an entire lunar day! This is why we call it the diurnal tide cycle.  

This tide pattern is experienced in the areas of the Gulf of Mexico.

Semi-diurnal pattern:

Were there only water on Earth, this would be the only existing pattern. During the semi-diurnal tide cycle, affected regions experience four tides every lunar day: two high tides and two low tides, of approximately <u>equal size</u>. The tidal period is in this case 12 hours and 25 minutes: half of a lunar day, which is exactly why we call it a semi'diurnal tide cycle!.

This is the most frequent tidal pattern among the world’s coasts.

Answer:

misattribution of arousal

Explanation:

Terri is relying on the psychological concept known as misattribution of arousal.

Misattribution of arousal in psychology is the concept used to describe the situation whereby individuals can be aroused by sources other than what was supposed to cause the arousal, it is when individuals wrongly attribute the stimulus that is responsible for their physiological arousal.

Terri's client may not have been aroused by the first date but by the expectation that a first date should result in physiological arousal.
