Subatomic particles
What is responsible for sublunar tides in the oceans?
Moon's gravity
Which interaction determines the motion of planets, stars, and galaxies?

Guiding the growth through gravitropism
Study Notes
Gravity and Interactions
- The strong interaction is stronger than gravity, but gravity dominates at large scales due to its infinite range.
- Gravity has no significant influence at very small scales (quantum gravity regime).
Tides and Celestial Movement
- Gravity is responsible for sublunar tides in the oceans.
- Gravity determines the motion of planets, stars, and galaxies.
Biology and Gravity
- Gravity has a biological function in plants, influencing their growth and orientation (gravitropism).
