Question

How are wave action and moving wind similar forces of change?

A.
They both use water to move material.
B.
Neither of them causes weathering.
C.
They both carry materials to new locations.
D.
Neither of them affects topsoil.

Answer 1

C. They both can carry materials to new locations.

Answer 2

Option (C)

Explanation:

The waves and wind are directly associated with one another. It is because the waves (surface or ocean waves) are generated due to the friction between the wind and the surface of the ocean water. These are known as the wind-driven waves.

Both wind and wave have similar characteristics as they have the ability to weather the least resistant rocks and carry sediments from one place to another and it generally affects the topsoil when flows over a particular region.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
