Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
Some hard rocks are able to resist erosion. Softer rocks like sandstone erode relatively quickly.
Information can be found in the section Erosional Processes Dominate Some Coasts



Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
Glaciation does change the level of the ocean. This is a globally impacting event. Glaciation would not
create changes in a single, localized area. Information can be found in the section Coasts Are Shaped
by Marine and Terrestrial Processes.
