What best describes the reason why neap tides occur?
When the Sun and Moon are at right angles, the combined gravity is weaker producing modest tides.
Neap tides occur during the change of tide when there is no movement of water.
Neap tides occur when the angle between the Earth and Sun is 90° offsetting the attraction of the Moon.
Neap tides occur in the fall and winter months when the Sun and Moon align obliquely to each other.

The best description of the reason why neap tides occur is:
**When the Sun and Moon are at right angles, the combined gravity is weaker producing modest tides.**
Neap tides happen when the gravitational forces of the Sun and the Moon are perpendicular to each other, which leads to lower high tides and higher low tides than usual.
