Question

Read the following paragraph and answer the question that follows:
The size of oceanic waves is a function of the velocity of the wind and of fetch, the length of the surface of the water subject to those winds. The average impact of waves against a coastline is a function of the size of the waves and the shape of the sea bottom. The degree of erosion on coastline is a function of the average impact of waves and the geologic composition of the coastline.
According to the above paragraph, which of the following options will be true?

• A. The fetch of wind is related to the shape of the sea bottom.
• B. The size of oceanic waves will not fluctuate far from average.
• C. The size of oceanic wave is correlated with the shape of the sea bottom.
• D. Degree of erosion on coastline is not related with the velocity of wind.
• E. Degree of erosion on coastline is related to shape of the sea-bottom.

Answer 1

Answer: (E)

Degree of erosion on coastline is related to shape of the sea-bottom.

Answer 2

The correct option is (E): Degree of erosion on coastline is related to shape of the sea-bottom.
