Answer:

Because ocean tides are the effect of ocean water responding to a gravitational gradient, the moon plays a larger role in creating tides than does the sun. But the sun's gravitational gradient across the earth is significant and it does contribute to tides as well.

Answer:

tides are influenced more by moon than the sun even when the sun is much bigger than the moon because unlike the sun the moon is at a much closer vicinity than the sun to the earth...so the impact of moon on tides are much more than the earth
