Answer;

The above statement is true.

A spit is formed through wave deposition

Step-by-step explanation;

-A spit is an extended stretch of beach material that projects out to sea and is joined to the mainland at one end. Spits are also created by deposition.

-Spits are formed where the prevailing wind blows at an angle to the coastline, resulting in longshore drift. An example of a spit is Spurn Head, found along the Holderness coast in Humberside.
