← GeographyWhich outcome results when joint density increases near sea stacks?
A)Accelerated wave-cut platform development✓
B)Increased biogenic reef formation rates
C)Decreased clastic sediment deposition
D)Reduced isostatic rebound intensity
💡 Explanation
Higher joint densities weaken rock integrity, accelerating erosion via hydraulic action like the undercutting and collapse that forms wave-cut platforms; therefore, higher density promotes platform development, rather than processes like reef formation.
