Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A wave-cut platform is a flat, bench-like surface cut into rock along a coast by the destructive force of waves. Tombolos are narrow strips of land connecting an island to the mainland or another island. Sea stacks are tall pillars of rock offshore that were originally connected to the mainland but have been eroded by waves. Spits are long, narrow strips of sand or gravel extending from the mainland into open water.
