What is the process of a sea stack becoming a stump?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Continuous wave erosion lowers the stack into a low remnant
A sea stack is an isolated pillar left after waves enlarge cracks, caves, arches, and eventually collapse the arch or headland. Continued wave attack, especially near the base, weakens and lowers the remaining pillar until it becomes a shorter, wave-worn stump, often visible only at low tide. Therefore option A describes the correct stage of coastal erosion; the other choices involve unrelated agents and landforms.
