The answer is friction. As ocean wave approach the shoreline, they are affected by the sea bed through process such as refraction, shoaling, bottom friction and wave-breaking. However wave breaking also occurs in deep water when the waves re too steep. If the waves meet major structurer or abrupt changes in the coastline, they will be transformed by diffraction.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

If the contour lines are close together it means that the change in elevation is very steep.

Explanation:

A is not correct because if the topography is almost flat, the contour lines would be very far apart.

B is correct because the closer the contour lines are, the steeper the topography is, meaning that the terrain is very steep.

C is not correct because if the elevation is not changing, the contour lines will be missing from that part of the map.

A rock inclusion in a basalt lava flow is dated at 56 Ma. This means the lava flow must have occurred _______ 56 Ma.
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

after

Explanation:

The rock inclusions are older than the rock that is surrounding them. In this case, we have a rock inclusion that is dated to 56 Ma. It is an inclusion in basalt. This means that the lava flow, as it was moving in that area managed to get the rock inclusion, and as the lava started to cool off, it consolidated and trapped the rock inclusion in it for time to come. This makes up for a very interesting appearance of the rocks, as there is the basis, being all from the same type of mineral, and then inside of the uniform rock mass, there is a totally different smaller piece of rock sticking out.
