Answer Key

SECTION A: Map, Graph & Data Skills

1. Coastal Landform Analysis (a) Visible features [3]:

Steep cliff face/vertical rock wall.
Wave-cut platform (flat rocky area at the base of the cliff).
Wave-cut notch (indentation at the base of the cliff).
(Accept any 3 relevant descriptions based on a typical coastal cliff photograph).

(b) Geological and wave processes [4]:

Hydraulic Action: Waves force air and water into cracks in the cliff, expanding them and breaking the rock.
Abrasion/Corrasion: Waves fling sediment and pebbles against the cliff face, wearing it away.
Notch Formation: Erosion is concentrated at the high-tide mark, creating a wave-cut notch.
Collapse: As the notch deepens, the overhanging cliff becomes unstable and collapses under gravity.
Retreat: This process repeats, causing the cliff to retreat inland and leaving behind a wave-cut platform.

2. Tourism Data Representation (a) Calculation [2]:

Total tourists = 12,000 thousand
Indonesia = 2,800 thousand
Calculation: $(2,800 / 12,000) \times 360^\circ$
Answer: $84^\circ$

(b) Bar Chart [3]:

X-axis: Source Markets (Malaysia, Indonesia, China, India, USA).
Y-axis: Number of Tourists (in thousands), scaled appropriately (e.g., 0 to 7,000).
Bars drawn to correct heights relative to the data in Table 2.1.
Correct labeling of axes and title.
