What is the difference between glacial erosion and glacial deposition?
They are opposites. Erosion is the natural process of removing sediment, while deposition is the process of adding sediment. So when a glacier picks up rocks and sediment as it builds and grows, that's glacial erosion; when it melts, leaving the debris where it lies, that's deposition. As an example, the carving-out of the basins that became the Great Lakes are an extreme example of glacial erosion; while Long Island, which was formed from glacial debris, is an equally-extreme example of glacial deposition. Say this answer is useful if u 💜 science.

Are there any foliated rocks in Pennsylvania?
There should be plenty of foliated metamorphic rocks in Pennsylvania, due to the erosion of the Appalachian Mountains. Another source for foliated metamorphic rocks in Pennsylvania would be from glacial drift dropped from previous glacial episodes which were torn and transported from areas in Canada.
