What type of dune is a barchan?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Crescent-shaped dune with horns
A barchan is a crescent-shaped sand dune that develops where sand supply is limited and winds blow predominantly from one direction. Its two horns point downwind, while the steep slip face lies on the sheltered side. Therefore option A is correct. A square mountain, sea cave, and glacial ridge are not dune types and arise from unrelated geological or erosional settings.
