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.

The magma most likely form a basalt plateau or shield volcano is
Feliz [49]

Answer:

b) Magma B

Explanation:

The magma that forms a basalt plateau or a shield volcano is a mafic (basaltic) magma. This magma is low in viscosity, making it very liquid, so when there's an eruption there's lava flows coming down the slopes like rivers, moving relatively fast. This type of magma has low content of silica, which is the reason why it is low in viscosity. The low viscosity also contributes to very small amount of gases in the magma, as the gases can escape from it very easily so they do not come in a situation to be trapped. The low amount of gases means that the volcanoes with this type of magma have calm eruptions, and explosive eruptions are either nonexistent, or extremely rare.
