Question:
What is the correlation between the moon and the ocean's tide?
A
The gravitational pull of the moon essentially moves the ocean in one direction, creating tides.
Explaination
The Earth's water is susceptible to the force of the moon's gravitational pull; as such, the movement of the moon affects the cycles of ocean tides. This is not due to swelling molecules, and does not result in decreased movement.
