Answer:

A. The moon's gravity and Earth's rotation

Explanation:

The Moon spins around the Earth, and in this movement, both the Earth is attracted to the Moon, and our natural satellite is attracted to Earth by the force of gravity. It is the gravitational attraction that the Moon exerts on Planet Earth, along with the rotation of the earth, that causes the movement of the oceanic waters, that we call rising tide.

The sun also influences the movement of the tides. However the influence of the Moon is much stronger, for although the Sun is much larger than the Moon, it is much further away, which reduces the intensity of gravitational attraction.

The diagram below shows the stump of a tree whose root grew into a small crack in bedrock and split the rock apart.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Physical Weathering

Explanation:

As per the given conditions in the question, the primary effect is <u>mechanical action</u> which is also known as a <u>physical weathering</u>. During mechanical action, a rock is disintegrated into the smaller pieces. In the given statement, <u>the root of tree would grow in the crack and try to develop a strong network to get nutrients necessary for tha tree growth</u>. Thus, the <u>root would exert a pressure</u> in the crack to make more space for its growth and development (root network). This is primarily a mechanical action and an example of physical weathering.

Lorico [155]

Answer:

The gravitational pull between two objects increases as the distance between them decreases. The gravitational pull also increases with an increase in the mass of the objects. Earth has a large mass. So, when our bodies are close to Earth, the gravitational pull between us and the Earth is strong. This force pulls us down, so we stand firmly on the ground without floating in the air. Without the gravitational force, we would drift away from Earth.
