What are 2 ways glaciers erode the land?
The two processes are abrasion and plucking.What processes lead to glacial erosion? Describe them.The two main processes that lead to glacial erosion are plucking and abrasion. Plucking is the process by which a glacier picks off rocks as it blocks over the land. The rock fragments freeze to the bottom of the glacier, gouging and scratching the bedrock as the glacier advances in the process of abrasion.
How is a arete form?
It is formed when two glaciers erode parallel from each other or when two glaciers erode towards each other
How do glaciers erode rock?
sedimentary rock
Do glaciers gouge and scratch bedrock through the process of abrasion?

What are two types of glacial erosion?
The two processes by which glaciers erode the land are plucking and abrasion.
Why do glaciers cause erosion?
Glaciers cause erosion since they are in form of a block of snow which will melt and erode the land. This can be in form of abrasion, freeze-thaw or plucking.
What is the root word of abrasion?
The root word of abrasion is abrade.
How does waves erode by abrasion?
Abrasion is the 'sand papering' effect of the wave on a cliff
