Which outcome results when prevailing winds undergo wave refraction around resistant headlands?

💡 Explanation

Increased sea stack formation results because wave energy concentrates through wave refraction on headlands, increasing erosion; the undercutting action creates temporary arches, driven by differential erosion, forming the stacks rather than smoothing the coastline. Therefore sea stack creation increases around the headlands areas.
