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.

Where can we find the roots of our problematic ideas about "cultural authenticity"?
sasho [114]

A cultural system creates a unique world that is experienced as "reality" by its members. The people of a certain culture come to accept the "realities" which form its culture.

However, when groups of different cultures come together, their "realities" become confronted. Creating a clash of cultures. The outcome of this clash is decided by the material power of each of this groups. The group with the most material will emerge victoriously and end up influencing the other group with its cultural system. Therefore, individuals from the influenced culture will end up learning a new "reality" by force. On the other hand, individuals of the influencing culture tend to see the others as "objects of study".  

Clashes of cultures have been occurring throughout time, affecting the cultural authenticity of groups. Due to the constant blend of cultures, it is nowadays, very difficult to consider that a certain cultural group is "truly authentic".
