Answer:
erosion
Waves are the major cause of erosion along the coast. Waves shape the coast through erosion by breaking down rock and moving sand and other sediment.
deposition
Waves shape a coast when they deposit sediment, which can form beaches, spits and barrier beaches. Deposition occurs when the waves slow down, causing the water to drop the sediment. This process is similar to the deposition that occurs in a river.
