The moon causes the earths water to have a low tide or a high tide

The Sun and the Moon.
The moon's gravitational pull causes ocean tides through a phenomenon called tidal force. As the moon orbits Earth, its gravitational force causes the oceans to bulge, resulting in high and low tides. This gravitational interaction between the moon and Earth is what leads to the phenomenon of earth tides.
Tides are caused by the interaction of Earth, the moon, and the sun. Changes in the positions of Earth, the moon, and the sun affect the heights of the tides during a month.
The gravitational force exerted by the moon and the sun on Earth's oceans causes tides to occur. The moon's gravitational pull is stronger than the sun's, resulting in two high tides and two low tides each day.
Tides on earth are mainly caused by the moon's gravity and earth's rotation.

The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.
The moon's gravitational pull on the earth is what causes tides.
It causes the tides (together with the sun).
The Moon is the main body that causes tides , by gravitational acceleration. However, the Sun also has an effect, but because it is much further away from Earth , than the Moon, the Sun's effect on the tides is much less. When the Sun and Moon are pulling together (New Moon) there are very high/low spring tides. When the Sun and Moon are pulling in opposite directions (Full Moon), there are still high/low spring tides, but not quite as high/low. When the Sun and Moon are orthogonal (right- angles) to each other (Firs/Last Quarters) there are Neap Tides. The High/Low tides are not very high/low, because these two objects are pulling at right-angles. Select a place on Earth, say Bay of Fundy in Canada, and check the high/low tides for say 60 days ( 2 mo(o)nths). You will see the above tidal pattern. It goes up and down like a wave.

The earth's highest tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun on the earth's oceans. When the sun, moon, and earth are aligned during a full moon or new moon, their gravitational forces combine to create higher tides known as spring tides.
