I gave my students this multiple choice question: Ocean tides of Earth are strongly influenced by the Moon. During which lunar phases are ocean tides lowest on Earth?

Only one answer is correct among these 4 choices:
- full and first quarter
- full moon and new moon
- last quarter and new moon
- first quarter and last quarter

Could you tell me which one is correct?

first quarter and last quarter
