"Erosion will increase, carrying more sand away than before" will most likely result.

Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Erosion occurs when the sea area is consumed. There are five main mechanisms that cause coastal erosion. There is corrasion, hydraulic performance, abrasion, oxidation and solution/ corrosion.

Corrasion occurs when the waves remove dirt from the floor (like pebbles) and rotate it at the bottom of the rock. The shoreline is usually longer. Softer areas are covered with sediment from hard areas and rocks are removed.

Which explains upwelling in the oceans?
Leokris [45]

Winds blowing across the ocean surface push water away. Water then rises up from beneath the surface to replace the water that was pushed away. This process is known as “upwelling.”

Upwelling occurs in the open ocean and along coastlines. The reverse process, called “downwelling,” also occurs when wind causes surface water to build up along a coastline and the surface water eventually sinks toward the bottom.

Water that rises to the surface as a result of upwelling is typically colder and is rich in nutrients. These nutrients “fertilize” surface waters, meaning that these surface waters often have high biological productivity.  Therefore, good fishing grounds typically are found where upwelling is common.
