Hey Mate,
Here's your answer,
____________________
The regular rise and fall of the ocean’s waters are known as tides. It is high tide when water covers much of the shore by rising to its highest level. It is low tide when water falls to its lowest level and recedes from the shore.
Some of the importance of tides is discussed below:
1. Fishing: Tides affect other aspects of oceanic life, including the reproductive activities of fish and ocean plants.
2. Tidal Zone Foods: Edible sea creatures like Crabs, mussels, snails, seaweed etc. inhabit the tidal zone and the most important point to be remembering that without the regular washing of the tides, these complex and abundant creatures would die and food resources would diminish.
3. Navigation: High tides help in navigation. They raise the water level close to the shores which helps the ships to arrive at the harbour more easily.
4. Weather: Tides stirred the ocean water that makes habitable climatic condition and balance the temperatures on the planets.
