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.

The percentage of a rock’s total volume that has pores and spaces is referred to as its _______________________.
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Porosity

Explanation:

Porosity is defined as the total percentage of pore spaces that are present within a rock. These spaces are found between the rock particles and fractures and are mostly filled with fluid mixture or water. It is the ratio between the total pore space in a rock to the total volume of the rock. It is mainly calculated in terms of percentage.

Porosity is directly affected by sorting. Well-sorted rocks indicate high porosity but poorly-sorted rocks indicate low porosity. Some of the examples of rocks exhibiting high porosity are limestone, shale, and sandstone. Rocks with low porosity include granite and mudstone.
