Explanation:

Neap tides are tides with the smallest tidal range, occurring when the Earth, Moon, and Sun form a 90-degree angle. They happen at the first or last quarter phases of the Moon, when the solar and lunar tidal effects cancel each other out. This results in a relatively small tidal range compared to spring tides.
