During high tide in the bay of fundy, canada, the tide rises more than an inch per minute. which of the following factors are responsible for the rising tide? a. the moon's gravity and earth's rotation b. earthquakes and volcanoes c. cold and warm currents d. the ocean's conveyor belt and gyres

A. The moon's gravity and Earth's rotation

Explanation:

The Moon spins around the Earth, and in this movement, both the Earth is attracted to the Moon, and our natural satellite is attracted to Earth by the force of gravity. It is the gravitational attraction that the Moon exerts on Planet Earth, along with the rotation of the earth, that causes the movement of the oceanic waters, that we call rising tide.

The sun also influences the movement of the tides. However the influence of the Moon is much stronger, for although the Sun is much larger than the Moon, it is much further away, which reduces the intensity of gravitational attraction.

i think the answer is b.
