How do glaciers affect earths surface?
When they slide or move across the land they pick up rocks and soil which changes the Ground beneath it.By glacial erosion which is when slowly over time large U shaped valleys are carved out; or by 'plucking' which is when rocks or boulders are literally plucked up from the surface and carried down the valley.Rocks frozen underneath glaciers carve the land when glaciers move

How do you beat the part in the legend of Zelda skyward sword where you are in Eldin and you can't get passed the part where boulders are blocking your way?
There are a bunch of floating bones that you must run across to get to the boulders. If you start with your back to the boulders that are blocking your path, run back across the bones to the bomb flowers on the other side. Pick one of these flowers and roll it across the bones and the wait. A new path will appear.

How does material deposited by glaciers differ from material deposited by streams?
To answer this, think about the way water moves and how ice moves. Now think of steady fast-moving streams of water and massive hulking glaciers scraping across the land. Streams push sediments along and sort them into normalized groups. Sand is separated from stones of different sizes. Glacier pick up rocks in their slow progress and deposit them later as the ice melts. The streams' depositions are very regular; the glaciers' depositions are very irregular.
What caused the glacial grooves?

No. Valley glaciers are found in high mountain valleys. Continental glaciers, also called ice sheets, move across vast expanses of land regardless of terrain.
How was the landscape in Norway created?
Glaciers moved across the land, and made large cuts. These glaciers than melted and got filled up with water making them fjords.
