Promontories and bays influence and are affected by wave action differently. Choose the description that applies to promontories rather than bays.
1) Promontories are narrow, projecting landforms that extend into the water, while bays are wide, curved indentations in the coastline.
2) Promontories are formed by erosion and can be found along rocky coastlines, while bays are formed by deposition and can be found in sheltered areas.
3) Promontories are typically associated with high-energy wave environments and can experience strong wave action, while bays are typically associated with low-energy wave environments and experience less wave action.
4) Promontories are often characterized by steep cliffs and rocky shores, while bays are often characterized by sandy beaches and gentle slopes.
