The reason why a wave get taller as it gets closer to shore is that the shallow water at the bottom of the wave makes the wave length smaller. Option B
<h3>What is a wave?</h3>
A wave is a disturbance that occurs along a medium which transmits energy. Now we now that waves travel from place to place. The horizontal distance that is travelled by a wave is what we call the wavelength of the wave.
As the wave approaches the shore, the wave tends to slow down because it is dragged from beneath. In the process, the wave grows taller. Thus, the reason why a wave get taller as it gets closer to shore is that the shallow water at the bottom of the wave makes the wave length smaller. Option B

During the electrolysis of the molten lithium chloride, the Lithium ions (Li⁺) at the cathode undergoes reduction, and the electron configuration of lithium becomes 1s²2s¹.
<h3>What is electrolysis?</h3>
Electrolysis can be described as the process in which the electric current is passed through the chemical compound to break them. In this process, the atoms and ions are interchanged by the addition or removal of electrons.
The ions are allowed to move freely in this process. When an ionic compound is melted or dissolved in water then ions are produced which can move freely.
During the electrolysis of molten lithium chloride, the lithium ions reach the cathode and accept the electrons while chloride ions reach at anode and loss electrons to become chlorine gas.
At anode : 2 Cl⁻ → Cl₂ + 2e⁻
At cathode: 2 Li⁺ + 2e⁻ → Li

The white-tailed deer. (D)
The rest are plants, which make their own energy from photosynthesis.
<h2> The correct option is (a).</h2>
Explanation:
- There is no change of state in pouring water into a vacuum insulated bottle as the vacuum created inside the bottle only reduces the time limit for the transfer of heat by conduction and convection.
- It helps the content filled in the bottle to be hot and cool for a longer time.
Hence, option (a) is correct.
Rest of the options (b), (c), (d), (e) is not correct because of the following reasons:
- In the sublimation of dry ice, the dry ice (solid-state) is changed to the vapour form.
- In the freezing of water, the liquid state is changed to solid-state.
- During the vaporization of alcohol, the liquid state is changed to the vapour form.
- During the melting of ice, the solid-state is changed to the liquid state.
