Describe a spring tide and how does high and low tide change during a sprint tide?

Biology
1 answer:
Dmitriy789 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

The definition of a spring tide is a flood or rising of water especially during a new or full moon. ... A tide in which the difference between high and low tide is the greatest. Spring tides occur when the Moon is either new or full, and the Sun, the Moon, and the Earth are aligned.

Waves are additive so when the gravitational pull of both bodies is in the same direction the high tides add and the low tides add (Figure below). Highs are higher and lows are lower than at other times through the month. These more extreme tides, with a greater tidal range, are called spring tides.

How does evolution lead to both the diversity and the unity of life?
gogolik [260]
<span>Simple. All of the millions of different life forms (the diversity of life) have come about by natural selection, whereby random mutations in the genes have either succeeded or failed. But all life can be traced back to a common single-celled origin. Thus we have the unity of life where we (possibly) share more than 50 % of our DNA with a crocodile.eg:analogous organs, homologous organs.</span>
