How to Poach an Egg in the Microwave. 1  In a small microwave-safe dish, such as a custard cup, combine 1/3 cup water, 1/4 teaspoon vinegar, and a pinch of salt. 2  Gently crack one large egg into the water mixture and cover the dish with plastic wrap, a lid, or a small plate.  Place the covered dish in a microwave oven.
One of the shoreline features that is created by erosion is a wave-cut cliff, which is a steep rock face created by the eroding action of waves. As waves continue to hit the cliff, it retreats farther inland, leaving behind a wave-cut platform, which is a somewhat flat area found at the base of a wave-cut cliff.
Coastal erosion is the wearing away and breaking up of rock along the coast. Destructive waves erode the coastline in a number of ways: 1  Hydraulic action. 2  Air may become trapped in joints and cracks on a cliff face. 3  When a wave breaks, the trapped air is compressed which weakens the cliff and causes erosion. 4  Abrasion.
