Waves pounding the shoreline can make cracks. The cracks then gradually get larger and turn into a small cave. When the cave wears through the headland, an arch forms. Further erosion causes the arch to collapse, leaving the pillar of hard rock standing away from the coast-the stack. Eventually, erosion will cause the stack to collapse, leaving a stump.

How are Sea Stacks and sea arches formed?
Sea stacks are formed when a sea arch collapses and sea arches are formed when waves (pound) erode or ware away a whole in the headland.
How are sea stacks formed and sea archs?
By erosion. Sea caves erode to become sea arches which erode to form sea stacks.
How are formed in the sea?
The sea first forms sea caves then sea arches then sea stacks and finally it forms sea stumps which will eventually disappear.
How are stumps formed in the sea?

How are stacks found?
They are found by the coast and are formed by the headland being eroded by the sea, and turning into a cave, which turns into an arch from more erosion, then gets smashed into a stack by the sea.
What are Grana formed from?

Why sea caves are turned into stacks?
sea caves are turned into stacks because of the erosion and deposition of the sea waves gives rise to coastal land forms.
