Step-by-step explanation:

In sea levels, tides used to fall and rise due to the gravitational forces exerted by the rotation of Earth, Sun and Moon.

This difference in height between successive high and low tides is called the tidal range as it tells the exact amount of rise and fall.

The tidal range changes according to the change in location of Sun and Moon and it is not constant.
