The correct option is: **They cause small waves in the open ocean, but large ones near the shore.**
Tsunamis typically have a long wavelength and are not very noticeable in deep water, causing relatively small wave heights. However, as they approach shallow water near the shore, their speed decreases and wave heights can increase dramatically, resulting in large, powerful waves.
