Explanation:

Ocean tides on Earth are mainly influenced by the gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun. The Moon has a stronger influence due to its closer proximity, but the Sun also plays a role, especially during spring and neap tides. The pull of distant planets has a negligible effect on Earth's tides, and Earth does not revolve around the Moon (the Moon revolves around Earth).
