• A: Low tide B: High tide

• A: High tide B: High tide

Answer 1

A: High tide B: High tide

Explanation:

The diagram shows the Earth, Moon, and the bulging of water on both sides of the Earth due to the gravitational pull of the Moon.

• Point A is the side of the Earth facing the Moon, where water is pulled directly by the Moon’s gravity — this causes a high tide.

• Point B is on the opposite side of the Earth. Here, the Earth is pulled slightly more than the water on that far side, creating a second bulge — another high tide.
