The Moon's gravity pulls ocean water toward it while the Earth revolves.

How does the moon affect the earth's oceans?
The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.
Who causes the tides?
The tides are caused by the moon's gravitational force.

What does the Moon's gravitational pull do to the tides on earth?
It causes the tides (together with the sun).
What are tides in the science form?
The moon's gravitational pull on the earth is what causes tides.
How do the moon and tides relate?
The gravitational pull of the moon on Earth's oceans causes tides. When the moon is closest to Earth, during a full or new moon, tides are generally stronger (spring tides). When the moon is at a right angle to the sun, during the first and last quarter moon phases, tides are weaker (neap tides).
The part of the moon that causes tides?
The moons mass in general causes the tides. Mass has gravity, and the moon is massive enough for its gravity to pull noticeably on the oceans.
What is the Moon's effect on Earths tides?
The Moon's gravitational pull causes tides on Earth. When the Moon is closest to a particular area, it exerts a stronger gravitational force and creates higher tides known as spring tides. When the Moon is farthest away, it creates lower tides known as neap tides.
What forces causes the earth's highest tides in the ocean?
The gravity of the moon and sun causes the earth's tides. The greatest tides are called 'spring' tides which occur when the earth, moon and sun are aligned. The moon has the greatest effect on our tides because of its proximity.
