Question
- what type of dune forms when the wind comes from more than one direction?
a. transverse dune
b. longitudinal dune
c. barchan dune
d. star dune
Brief Explanations
Star dunes form when wind blows from multiple different directions, creating a multi-armed, star-like shape. The other dune types form under single-directional wind: transverse dunes are perpendicular to wind direction, longitudinal dunes run parallel to wind, and barchan dunes are crescent-shaped from consistent wind.
