Answer:
High and low tides are caused by the moon. 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.

The alternate rising and falling of the sea, usually twice in each lunar day at a particular place, due to the attraction of the moon and sun.
The gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the surface of earth cause tides. Actually tides follow the apparent movement of the moon due to its closeness to the earth.
