Geography
1 answer:
horrorfan [7]3 years ago

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.

What should you do if you get stuck in a rip current? Why?
Schach [20]

Answer:  Swim parallel to shore to escape the current.

Explanation:

Most rip currents are between 30 and 100 feet (9.1 and 30.5 m) wide. Look for the nearest breaking waves; they indicate the current's edge. Swim toward the waves, and be sure to move parallel to the shore instead of directly towards it.
