from the top to the bottom

- The direction of beach drift

<h3>What is longshore sediment transport?</h3>
  • The collective movement of beach and nearshore sand parallel to the shore caused by the combined action of tides, wind, and waves, as well as the shore-parallel currents produced by them, is referred to as longshore transport.
  • Usually, these forces cause sand to move practically continuously, either in bedload flows or suspension.
  • This happens in an intricate, three-dimensional pattern that changes quickly over time.
  • Sand in the area of interest may occasionally have an upcoast component whereas other sand is often migrating downcoast.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Explanation:

Cultural geography is a subfield within human geography. Though the first traces of the study of different nations and cultures on Earth can be dated back to ancient geographers such as Ptolemy or Strabo, cultural geography as academic study firstly emerged as an alternative to the environmental determinist theories of the early 20th century, which had believed that people and societies are controlled by the environment in which they develop.[1] Rather than studying pre-determined regions based upon environmental classifications, cultural geography became interested in cultural landscapes.[1] This was led by the "father of cultural geography" Carl O. Sauer of the University of California, Berkeley. As a result, cultural geography was long dominated by American writers.

Answer:

Option d)

Explanation:

  • A few comets draw nearer to the Sun and accordingly lose mass all the more rapidly.  
  • Long-period comets (those which take over 200 years to orbit around the Sun) start from the Oort Cloud.  Danish space expert Jan Oort suggested that comets live in an immense cloud at the external scopes of the close planetary system, a long ways past the orbit of Pluto. This came to be called as the Oort Cloud.  
  • The major constituents of a comet are ice, dust and water.
  • Comets don't generally have tails. They build up a fluffy, shell-like cloud known as a coma, and one, two, or three tails when close to the Sun.
