Correct option is B
Ocean tides are caused by the gravitational interaction between the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun. The gravitational pull of the Moon has the most significant effect on the Earth's oceans, creating the regular rise and fall of sea levels known as tides. The Sun also exerts a gravitational force that influences tides, though to a lesser extent compared to the Moon. The combined gravitational forces of these celestial bodies result in the complex patterns of tides observed on Earth.
