← GeographyWhich geologic outcome rapidly alters island formation during seismic activity?
A)Tsunamis erode sediment deposits✓
B)Isostatic rebound lifts the land
C)Landslides trigger turbidity currents
D)Pyroclastic flow increases island fertility
💡 Explanation
Tsunamis quickly and drastically change deposition and erosional patterns. Extreme erosion occurs because the wave energy transports sediment far from the existing island, rather than building the land through isostatic adjustments or localized volcanic output.
