Earth's tides are caused by the gravity of the moon and the ____________.

2. Both the sun and the moon exert gravitational force on the waters of Earth. This creates the tides we are familiar with. Look at the photograph below. Which of the following BEST explains why the moon has a greater effect on the tides than the sun? aThe moon is denser than the sunbThe moon is closer to Earth than the sun is.cThe moon has a lot more mass than the sun.dThe moon has greater acceleration than the sun.
