What is the correct sequence from a sea cave to a sea stack?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Cave then arch then stack
The governing concept is progressive marine erosion of a resistant coastal headland. Waves exploit a crack or weak zone to enlarge a sea cave. Continued erosion may cut through the headland and produce a sea arch. When the arch roof collapses, an isolated pillar remains as a sea stack. Therefore A gives the correct sequence; the other choices mix unrelated depositional, glacial, or aeolian features.
