Which outcome occurs when hydraulic action weakens sea stacks?

💡 Explanation

Notched sea caves form because hydraulic action, driven by wave energy, erodes the base of the stacks by the force of water. Therefore, undercutting leads to cave formation rather than other geological or ocean dynamics under different force exposures.
