Answer:

The answer is below! I have written in paragraph form. I hope this will surely help you!

Explanation:

SPRING TIDES : The tidal effect of the sun and the moon acting in concert twice a month, when the sun, earth and moon are all in a straight line (full moon or new moon). The range of tide is larger than average.

NEAP TIDES : The prominent point is that the sun and the moon are at the right angle to each other. This tide occurs during the first and the last quarter of the moon. The gravitational pull of the moon and the resulting oceanic bulge is cancelled out by the gravitational pull of the sun and its resulting oceanic bulge.
