Answer:

High tides and low tides are caused by the Moon.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth and its water to bulge out on the side closest to the Moon and the side farthest from the Moon. These bulges of water are high tides.

hope this helps
