Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Wave-cut platforms mark the limit of marine erosion. These are nearly level with the ocean. The debris
from marine erosion tends to be deposited father offshore. Information can be found in the section
Erosional Processes Dominate Some Coasts.



Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Deltas form in low energy areas where there is not too much wave action. The largest deltas are found
in enclosed seas. They are also found at tectonically stable, trailing edges of continents. Information
can be found in the section Larger-Scale Features Accumulate on Depositional Coasts.
