Seasons and Eclipses Mastery Regrade

15) What type of tide would this arrangement of earth-moon-sun create? 
My answer: Spring tide.

Correct answer: The correct answer is spring tide. This is the correct answer because when the moon and sun are aligned, they combine their gravitational pulls. This is also why spring tides have the biggest difference between the high tides and low tides. On the mastery quest, this answer was marked wrong even though it was correct.

17) Why do we experience the changing of seasons on the earth?
My answer: Rotation of the Earth

Correct answer: The correct answer is the tilt of the Earth's axis because when the Earth revolves around the Sun, the axis affects the position of the northern and southern hemispheres in relation to the sun, which causes a change in the seasons.

37) What is your science teacher's full name? 
My answer: Mariana Garcia-Serrato

Correct answer: The correct answer is Mariana Garcia Serrato. This is the correct answer because in all other countries except for America you don't hyphenate names. Since she is from Mexico, she does not have a hyphen in between the two last names.
