The Northeast became a leader in commerce because of its location and early development of industrial industries. The Northeast became a manufacturing hub in the colonies and in the newly formed United States which created specialization and the growth of commerce in this region relative to the South which was more agriculturally based.
The correct answer is - B) wave erosion.
The beach erosion is a direct result of the wave action on the coastline. The waves are very powerful when it comes to erosion, and this is because they have big power, and also the chemical components of the water that are very effective too.
The sheer power of the waves contributes to the direct breaking of the rocks into smaller pieces over time, while the water itself, is reacting with the rocks on a chemical level and slowly decomposes them. As the rocks are getting smaller and smaller because of the erosion, the tiny fractions of sand particles are forming the beaches along the coastlines.

<h2>Answer: Atoll</h2>
An atoll is an oceanic coral island, usually in the shape of a circular ring, which may be completely or partially closed. It is also called by this term to the set of several small islands that are part of a coral reef, with an interior lagoon that generally communicates with the sea.
Atolls are formed when a coral reef grows around an oceanic volcanic island, as the island sinks into the ocean and disappears underwater, the growth of the coral increases until reaching the sea level, where the action of the wind and the waves erode it and transform it into sand.
It should be noted that this process can take millions of years.
In this sense, the Maldives, an island country located in the Indian Ocean (southwest of Sri Lanka and a few kilometers from India), has these characteristics.
Its territory is organized in 26 atolls and as a country it is constituted by some 1200 islands.
