Answer: True

Explanation: Jetties are structures constructed perpendicular to shore. They form a 90 degree angle to the shore and cause sediment to accumulate on the updrift side. This is the side that provides sediments.

Jetties are made of heaps of stones or concrete deposited at coastal inlets. They change the longshore current, and due to this, create updrift beaches.

Shoreline Structures such as jetties, and seawells help protect the shoreline from erosion and lessen the effect of currents and waves on the shoreline.

During a total lunar eclipse, during totality, you'd expect:.
alexandr1967 [171]

I was a bit lost in the wording but I think I understand now...

When the lunar eclipse is in action, the earth's umbra thing will start covering the moon, making it possible to see it. When the earth's umbra completely covers the moon it will either have a red, brown or even sometimes a yellow look to it.

I think this was correct but I'm not sure about that. If this was wrong I'm really sorry and hope someone can give you the right answer for this.
