    A. Tides are driven by the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon.

    Explanation:

    Tides are rise and fall in level of seas and oceans. This happens due to the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon. The effect is maximum when the two align in a straight line and minimum when the two align at right angles.

    Spring tides occur during new moon and full moon phase when the sun and the moon align in straight line. Highest high tides and lowest low tides occur.

    Neap tides occur when the sun and the moon align at right angles. The tidal range is smallest due to this alignment.
