Answer:

Sand dunes are formed by the wind, it is formed usually along the beach or desert. It is formed when the air continues to blow sand into an area behind an object. It continues to grow as grains of sand get condensed. The sand can be transported to a different location by saltation, surface creeps and by suspension where it can settle along with beach and desert in order to form dunes.
