Fill in the sentences below with the processes and coastal landforms associated with longshore drift. Fill the appropriate blank
alina1380 [7]

1. Waves hitting at an angle and then bending around features of the coast is known as wave refraction.

2. Landforms associated with longshore drift form where the sediment is plentiful enough to create them.

3. When there is longshore drift, the overall direction of sand transport is parallel to the coast..

4. In order to produce longshore drift, the direction of waves must not be perpendicular to the coast.

5. A baymouth bar forms when longshore drift creates a ridge of sand separating a waterway from the ocean.

6. The direction that sediment is traveling along a coast is called the downstream direction.

Explanation:

Waves forms different kinds of land form in the coastal areas. Waves hit coast in a particular angle It is known as wave refraction. When sediments get deposited in the coastal areas and forms a bar which get detached from the shore is called long shore bar.

To create long shore drift the direction of wind should not be perpendiular to the coast. Direction will be parallel. A baymouth bar is formed when a ridge of sand is created and separates the waterway from ocean. Sediments travel along the coast in downstream direction.

Which of the following statements describe sinks for atmospheric CO2? Select all that apply.
lukranit [14]

Answer:  The following statements describe sinks for atmospheric CO_{2} :

<u><em>A. Biomass decomposes via anaerobic respiration in the deep soil.</em></u>

<u><em>B. Plants on land take up carbon dioxide via photosynthesis.</em></u>

<u><em>E. Carbon is transferred from the surface ocean to the deep ocean via the “biological pump” of settling organic matter.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

Anaerobic respiration utilizes  CO_{2} to break down biomass. Plants and trees consume atmospheric CO_{2} .  

Biological pump play a critical role in segregation of CO_{2} from atmosphere.

<u><em>Therefore the correct options in this case are (a),(c) and (e)</em></u>
