Answer:

The correct answer is D) Rainfall and Ocean waves.

Explanation:

The diagram indicated is a perfect example of coastal erosion.

Coastal erosion happens when land is lost or displaced. This can be short-term or long-term and may involve the elimination of sediment and rocks along the coastline resulting from the action of waves, currents, tides, wind-driven water, waterborne ice, or other impacts of storms.

The four main stages of coastal erosion are corrosion, abrasion, hydraulic action, and attrition.

The United States for instance experiences a lot of coastal erosion in all its regions. More specifically, barrier islands in the southeast and the Great Lakes record 25 feet and 50 feet recession rates respectively.

Why are the mountains thinly populated? Answer long in points . Please!​
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The main reason why mountains are rarely populated is because of the harsh climate that are dominating in those areas. On the other side, another important reason is that mountainous areas are not fertile enough and people are not able to grow crops. Lack of resources therefore is obliging people to move from the mountains to lower terrains.

Explanation:

Because of the mentioned reasons most of the people since the beginning of civilization were inhabiting river valleys and the areas that have better climate.

For example, Chinese civilization developed in the valley of Yangtze and Huang He and not Himalayas.
