SILTY SHALE
A bight is a wide bay formed by a bend or curve in a shoreline.
The Gulf of Mexico.
Rocky shorelines have rocks and cliffs, so when the waves crash against the rock fragments and sediments are formed along the shoreline.

The fjords are surrounded by rugged mountains. We can find them on the shoreline in Labrador. They are formed by glaciers that sculpted the valley's from a <<v>> shape to a <<u>> shape.
Some shoreline features formed by erosion include sea cliffs, sea arches, sea caves, and wave-cut platforms. Erosion by waves, currents, and wind gradually wears away the coastline, shaping these distinctive landforms over time.
To determine which geological feature formed farthest from the shoreline, one would typically look for evidence of sediment deposition or volcanic activity that occurred in deeper water or offshore environments. Features such as deep-sea trenches, abyssal plains, or seamounts are likely candidates, as they are formed in oceanic regions far from land. Conversely, coastal features like beaches, estuaries, and deltas are formed much closer to the shoreline. Therefore, geological formations associated with oceanic processes are more likely to be found farther from the shore.
Conglomerate rock is most likely formed from pebble-sized sediment deposited in shallow water at an ocean shoreline. As the pebbles accumulate, they cement together to form the rock.
A spit is formed by deposition. A spit is a long, narrow sandbar that extends from the shoreline into open water, created by the deposition of sediment carried by longshore drift.

Conglomerate rock is most likely formed from pebble-sized sediment deposited in shallow water at an ocean shoreline. The pebbles are typically rounded due to erosion in water, and they can become cemented together to form the conglomerate rock.
