Answer:

Tides on our planet are caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon and Sun. Earth's oceans "bulge out" because the Moon's gravity pulls a little harder on one side of our planet (the side closer to the Moon) than it does on the other. The Sun's gravity raises tides, too, but lunar tides are twice as big.

Answer:

Yes, moon's role is more impotant than of sun's to occur tides in the ocean.

Tides happen due the the gravitational force that is exerted on earth by the moon, and on the lesser extent by the sun, this gravitational pull generates tidal force. Tidal force causes the earth and its water to buldge out on the side closest to the moon and to the side farthest to the moon. Earth's closest side to the moon and the farthest one face the high tides. To figure out about low tides refer the attachment.
