The formula that describes Forces between heavenly bodies is

F = G * m1 *m2 / r^2

So the catch is the further away something is, the less effect it has on the earth's tides. That's the only answer that is correct.

A is wrong no matter what you are talking about concerning Jupiter and the moon.

B is wrong for the same reason as A: the opposite is true.

D it's true, but not as important as C.
