Question

how does the loss of vegetation on shore lines affect waterways? a. decreased sedimentation b. increased shorelines c. increased erosion of water banks d. none of the above please select the best answer from the choices provided

Explanation:

Vegetation on shore - lines helps hold soil in place. Without it, the soil is more vulnerable to being washed away by water, leading to increased erosion of water banks. It does not decrease sedimentation (it actually helps reduce it by trapping sediment), and it does not increase shore - lines.

Answer:

C. increased erosion of water banks
