What would happen to the ocean if there wasn’t a moon orbiting Earth? a. A moonless Earth would mean that the water of the ocean would be equally distributed around the earth and we would almost have no high or low tides at all.
b. A moonless Earth would create the lowest tides.
c. A moonless Earth would cause the sun to dry up the Ocean leaving no water on planet Earth.

This is what nineplanets.org had to say:

Scientists suggest that without the moon, tides would be 1/3 of the size they are now. High tides would be much smaller than they are now, and low tides would be even lower. This is because the sun would be influencing the tides, not the moon; however, the sun has a weaker pull, which would decrease the tides.

This leads me to believe that the answer is b. A moonless Earth would create the lowest tides. I think this because we would still have tides because of the sun's gravitational pull (which rules out a), and if the sun were to dry up the ocean, it would have done so already with or without the moon to influence the tides (which rules out c)

hello there,

igneous rock formed from below the surface would have more crystals because

answer: because magma cools more slowly than lava

hope this !
