Answer 1

Spring tides occur when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are aligned, which can happen during the full moon and the new moon phases. In a diagram showing spring tides, you would want to look for a straight line where the Sun, Earth, and Moon are positioned in alignment.

If you're provided with options A, B, or C as diagrams, choose the one that depicts this straight alignment (either Earth between the Sun and the Moon for a full moon or the Moon between the Earth and Sun for a new moon). Without seeing the diagrams, I cannot provide a specific answer.
