<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>As the frequency increases the wavelength decreases</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

We have a basic equation in oscillation which says that frequencies and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other. As the frequency increases the wavelength decreases so when the frequency of the waves increases the height and depth of the waves changes hence the surfer will be more likely to fall. On the other hand if the frequency is low then the wavelength will be high therefore the surfer will ride smoothly.

<span>Waves in a given area typically have a range of heights. For weather reporting and for scientific analysis of wind wave statistics, their characteristic height over a period of time is usually expressed as significant wave height. This figure represents an average height of the highest one-third of the waves in a given time period (usually chosen somewhere in the range from 20 minutes to twelve hours), or in a specific wave or storm system.

The illustration is a representation of the different ways molecules are transported across a cell membrane, that represents active transport is IV.
Active Transport is described as a process that involves the movement of molecules against a gradient or an obstruction from a location of lower concentration to a region of greater concentration.
A protein pump uses ATP, which is a form of stored energy, to move molecules during active transport.The process of active transport, which moves molecules using ATP as an external energy source.
Some examples of active transport include the absorption of glucose in the human intestine and the uptake of minerals or ions into the root hair cells of plants.
Active transportation comes in two flavors:
