Explanation:
wave-cut platform, shore platform, coastal bench, or wave-cut cliff is the narrow flat area often found at the base of a sea cliff or along the shoreline of a lake, bay, or sea that was created by erosion. Wave-cut platforms are often most obvious at low tide when they become visible as huge areas of flat rock. Sometimes the landward side of the platform is covered by sand, forming the beach, and then the platform can only be identified at low tides or when storms move the sand.

A waves cut platform s result of the waves action and indicates the amount of uploifmemt cause by a earthquake.
Explanation:
- A wave-cut platform is a platform made on the shores and represents a narrow flat land area at the base of the sea or along the shoreline of the lake, and some time may be covered by sand forming the beaches.
- It's formed when the high waves hot against the sea cliff. They create an undercut between the high and the low watermarks. As a result of abrasion, and corrosion, along with hydraulic action. This creates a notch and enlarges into a cave.
- With changes, the waves cut platform can be raised or submerged depositional the structure and types of rocks. The seismic action results in a series of platforms that were previously glaciated.
