Which pair is linked with coastal erosion?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Sea cave and wave-cut platform
The governing concept is wave erosion along resistant rocky coasts. Waves exploit cracks at the base of a cliff and enlarge them into sea caves. Continued undercutting and cliff retreat leave a gently sloping rock surface called a wave-cut platform, commonly exposed at low tide. Deltas and floodplains are fluvial depositional forms, barchans and loess are wind-related, and moraines and drumlins are glacial, so A is the only coastal-erosion pair.
