Yes they do.
When glaciers pick up loose rocks, the rocks will act as an abrasion, scoring and abrading the land beneath as the glacier slowly moved on. You can see the scratch marks on bedrock exposed on the surface in some places.Also, boulders left isolated and strange to the area as the glacier melted and retreated are known as Glacial erratics.
While rivers usually form 'V' shaped valleys, glaciers form 'U' shaped valleys. There could also be scratch marks made by the glaciers picking up boulders and scraping them over any exposed bedrock. When the glaciers melted, these rocks and debris were left as moraines, often damming the melt water to form lakes.
The geologist would suspect that these were striae, which are marks made by a glacier dragging rocks over the bedrock.
Wind abrades rock by sandblasting, this is the process in which wind causes the blowing of millions of grains of sand, which bumps across the surface of rocks' surface. it can also happen due to deflation, which is when wind removes the top layer of fine sediment/soil to cause desert pavement (a cheaper way to form pavement☺).Glaciers, however, abrade rock by simply using Gravity. when enough ice builds up on a slope, the ice begins to move downhill. The steeper the slope, the faster the glacier. As glaciers move fowad, the material that they picked up scratch and abrade the rock and soil underneath the glacier, which causes erosion.
Well a scratch on your face would be 'a scratch' so it would be a thing, or a noun. But to scratch something would be an action or a verb; 'to scratch' is an action word and a verb.

A scratch on the surface of the eyeball.
The medical term commonly called a scratch is "abrasion." It refers to a superficial wound on the skin caused by rubbing or scraping against a rough surface.

They are called striations.

Scratch hardness is generally measured on the Mohs Scale of mineral hardness from 1 (talc) to 10 (diamond). One thing to keep in mind is that the Mohs Scale is purely ordinal, resulting in variable differences between each level. The actual tool used to measure scratch hardness is a Sclerometer.
It means doing something from beginning. If you "start from scratch," you start from the beginning. If you do something "from scratch," then you do the entire process by yourself without using a mix or kit or anything.
As glaciers move over Earth's surface, the ice acts like sandpaper. The scratch marks that are visible when the ice melts are called striations.
Such hard abrasion will scratch the metal surface. This will make future cleaning more difficult as staining will get inside the scratches and be difficult to remove.
