Answer:

C)

Explanation:

The removal of natural vegetation would affect the growth of the dunes in a negative way for the family. While it may seem to them like a good idea to uproot the local vegetation, this would be a grave mistake since beach vegetation is largely responsible for protecting the integrity of the beachfront and protecting it from rampant erosion by wave action.

Another unexpected consequence would be the changing patterns of dune movements since vegetation also anchors dunes.

Answer:

c)  Removing the sand may increase beach erosion, and the area may suffer nearshore flooding.

Explanation:

  • It's since the removal of the sand along the beaches shores will result in more erosion and thereby the increase chances of the flooding along the beaches and this can have serious damage to the ecology of the surrounding areas.
  • Thus there is a risk of high tides and the risk is also associated with the development of large tidal inlets and the occurrences of large storm waves.

Answer:

Mountain, Canyon, Delta

Explanation:

The uppermost box would be mountain.

The box below that one would be canyon.

And the farthermost box to the right would be delta.

If you thought about it, changing those circles to make them 3D is like stacking layers on top as they get smaller, this would form something that looks like a mountain.

Water typically runs through a canyon and the lines appear to be separating for the water.

Deltas are wetlands that form from rivers emptying their water into another body of water. If you were to look up an image of a delta that would make it easier to understand, it also looks like what the image provided is trying to demonstrate.
