Which erosional mechanism causes enhanced fjord deepening where underlying rock layers dip seaward?

💡 Explanation

When rock strata dip seaward, glacial plucking is enhanced along the bedding planes because the ice can exploit these weaknesses, effectively quarrying out large blocks of rock, leading to fjord deepening. Therefore, plucking increases, rather than chemical weathering, abrasion changes, or stream incision effects that are driven by different topographical and geomorphological processes.
