Gravity is what causes the tides in the first place. The tides are caused by the fact that the Moon attracts the Earth stronger on one side (the side that is closer to the Moon) than on the other side. To a lesser degree, the Sun's gravitation causes the same effect.

What role dose gravity play whit the ocean tides?
Its the driving force.
Explain the difference between the sun's role and the moon's role in creating tides?
The sun pulls the tides with it's small amount of gravity, but the sun has a larger gravitational pull.
What cycle does the atmosphere not play a role in?
In nitrogen cycle
Does the suns gravity effect the oceans?
Yes! Just like the Moon, the Sun participates in the creation of tides. The Sun's role in tides is less than that of the Moon, though.
How does gravity play a role in determining climate?
It doesn't!
