Answer: 1, 4, 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The moon always pulls on the tides, and in certain moments like the equinoxes the moon will set a patterned tide for the rest of the month, since the moon is being flung around in earths orbit, its gravity causes it to pull on the most flucuate object on earth: water. And if you have glass of water then put your hand into it you will see how your hand displaces the water.!
