8. How does a glaciated mountain valley differ in appearance from a mountain valley that was not glaciated?
A glaciated mountain valley will likely have a U-shaped profile with a broad, flat floor and steep, often striated walls due to the erosion by the glacier. In contrast, a mountain valley that was not glaciated will typically have a V-shaped profile with a narrower, more gently sloping floor and less steep walls shaped primarily by the natural erosional processes of water and weathering.
How does the shape of the glaciated mountain valley differ from the mountain valley?
A glaciated mountain valley typically has a U-shaped profile with a broad, flat bottom and steep, straight sides, formed by the movement of glaciers. In contrast, a mountain valley formed through other natural processes, such as erosion from rivers or tectonic activity, may have a V-shaped profile with a narrower bottom and more irregular slopes.
