Correct option is D
Explanation:
Tidal range refers to the vertical difference in sea level between a high tide and the succeeding low tide (or vice versa). It is a measure of how much the water level rises and falls due to tidal effects, caused mainly by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun.
Information Booster:
The tidal range varies depending on the location and the alignment of the Earth, moon, and sun.
· Spring tides (new and full moon) result in higher tidal ranges.
· Neap tides (first and third quarters of the moon) produce lower tidal ranges. Tidal range is important for navigation, marine construction, and coastal ecosystems.
