Which consequence results when preferential erosion of weaker rock layers occurs in a coastal cliff?

💡 Explanation

Increased sea stack formation results because differential weathering initiates the undercutting and collapse via basal sapping causing erosion of the cliff face; therefore sea stacks form from pillars rather than increased estuary sediments because this involves river deposition.
