Answer:

high tides

Explanation:

Why does the sun have an effect on tides on Earth?

The gravity of the Sun also pulls Earth's water towards it and causes its own tides. Because the sun is so far away, its pull is smaller than the Moon's. When the Sun and Moon are in line, during the new moon and the full moon, their high tides add up and create a spring tide.

What is a bush-tundra? (giving Brainliest to first answer)
Lisa [10]

Answer:

In physical geography, tundra is a type of biome where the tree growth is hindered by low temperatures and short growing seasons. The term tundra comes through Russian (tûndra) from the Kildin meaning "uplands", "treeless mountain tract".[1] Tundra vegetation is composed of dwarf shrubs, sedges and grasses, mosses, and lichens. Scattered trees grow in some tundra regions. The ecotone (or ecological boundary region) between the tundra and the forest is known as the tree line or timberline. The tundra soil is rich in nitrogen and phosphorus.[2]
