The tide produced as a consequence of the moon and the sun pulling the earth in the same direction is called

The correct answer is: C. spring tide

A spring tide is a tidal phenomenon that occurs when the Sun and Moon are aligned, either on the same side of Earth (new moon) or on opposite sides (full moon). This alignment causes the gravitational forces of the Sun and Moon to combine, creating stronger tides than usual.

Ebb tide is the receding of the tide, or the lowering of the sea level. It is the opposite of high tide.

Neap tide is a tidal phenomenon that occurs when the Sun and Moon are at right angles to each other, as viewed from Earth. This misalignment causes the gravitational forces of the Sun and Moon to cancel each other out, creating weaker tides than usual.
