There are many types of moraines. These include medial moraine, lateral moraine, ground moraine, and terminal moraine. The type that forms along each side of a glacier is a terminal moraine. The one that forms from unsorted rock materials is called a medial moraine.

How can an esker be quickly differentiated from a moraine by its sediment?
Since the esker was deposited in a flowing water regime, I would not expect to find many fine clays there. And I would not expect to find any large boulders, >1m in an esker. The moraine on the other hand will have parts that have been formed by rocks grinding each other in a comparatively waterless regime. So it will have lots of fine clays. Boulders >>1m could even be a feature of a moraine.

What are the different forms of a gene that decided a known as?
Each allele has two forms which are known as alleles. Alleles play an important role as to which characteristics either from mother or father will be passed along to the next generation. The way in which alleles are expressed is the study of genetics.
How are there only a few atoms yet millions of substances?
Each atom can exist in many forms on its own. Then when you combine each of the forms with each of the forms of the other atoms, the number of substances increases exponentially.
