Final answer:

Neap tides have the smallest tidal range and occur at the first and third quarters of the moon when the Sun and Moon are at right angles to each other.


Explanation:

Neap tides occur when the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun form a 90-degree angle. These tides have the smallest tidal range and happen at the first and third quarters of the moon. This is when the Sun and Moon pull at right angles to each other, causing lower tidal variations compared to spring tides.
