Question

The coastal rock formation shown in this image is created by the action of wave erosion. What type of rock formation is this?

The image shows a large rock formation with a very steep drop down into the sea.


cliff

stack

arch

glacial horn

Answer 1

Cliff

Reason: a steep rock face at the coast produced by wave erosion (undercutting and collapse). A stack or arch would be isolated or have a hole; a glacial horn is formed by glaciers, not waves.
