Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Each type of delta is dominated by a distinguishing characteristic. River-dominant deltas are shaped
like a bird's foot from the flow of the river. Tide dominated deltas create islands parallel to the river
flow. Wave-dominated deltas tend to be small and have smooth shorelines with sand dunes.
Information can be found in the section Larger-Scale Features Accumulate on Depositional Coasts.



Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Erosional coasts also must contend with the alternate freezing and thawing or water within rocks,
glacial activity, and rainfall. Both land and marine erosion processes modify these coastlines.
Information can be found in the section Erosional Processes Dominate Some Coasts
