Question

read the text.
tides are the alternate rising and falling of large bodies of water. tides are caused by the gravitational pulls of the sun and the moon. in a high tide, the sea level is at its highest point in the tidal cycle; in a low tide, the sea level is at its lowest point in the tidal cycle. during a new or full moon, the earth, sun, and moon are lined up, which leads to spring tides. a spring tide is when the tidal range is largest; spring tides combine the highest high tide and the lowest low tide. during a first - or third - quarter moon, the earth, sun, and moon form a right angle, which has the effect of creating neap tides. a neap tide is when the tidal range is smallest.
match causes with their effects.
tides form. neap tides form.
spring tides form.
cause
the sun and the moon exert gravitational pulls on the earth.
the earth, sun, and moon are aligned.
the earth, sun, and moon are at a right angle.
effect

Explanation:

• The text states that tides are caused by the gravitational pulls of the sun and the moon. So when the sun and the moon exert gravitational pulls on the Earth (cause), tides form (effect).
• When the Earth, sun, and moon are aligned, it leads to spring tides. So the cause “The Earth, sun, and moon are aligned” has the effect “Spring tides form”.
• When the Earth, sun, and moon are at a right angle, it creates neap tides. So the cause “The Earth, sun, and moon are at a right angle” has the effect “Neap tides form”.

Answer:

• The sun and the moon exert gravitational pulls on the Earth: Tides form.
• The Earth, sun, and moon are aligned: Spring tides form.
• The Earth, sun, and moon are at a right angle: Neap tides form.
