A spit  could form from a rocky headland where prevailing winds would blow at an angle to the rocky headland, gradually depositing sand and shingle at that place.

A spit is a permanent landform resulting from marine deposition and wind deposition. It is usually a long and narrow accumulation of sand or shingle with one joined to the land and the other end projecting at   a narrow angle out into the sea.

Salt marshes sometimes form on the sheltered side of a spit.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Options (B)

Explanation:

New Zealand is an island country, located adjacent to the great pacific ocean. Whereas, the country of Australia is located towards the north-western side of New Zealand, at a distance of about 2500 miles.
