Tides come because of the gravitational attraction of moon and sun, which move the bodies of water on the earth as well as the water, which is the main constituent of human body (75%).

The wind transport it all over the earth and the condensation supplies fresh, sweet water to all places where it is required for supporting life. It goes down the earth by infiltration and percolation. Again it comes to the atmosphere through the leaves of trees and evaporation from the exposed surfaces of water i.e. evapotranspiration. The underground water emerges as springs or extrac...
