Which stateement about a mineral sample found in a fiel is most likely to inference?
the sample was transported by a glacier
Which rock material was most likely transported to its present location by a glacier?
unsorted loose gravel found in hills
Small hills that are formed from deposits left by streams on the surface of a glacier are called what?
Kames. Many are found in areas of kettles and moraines.
A deposit of rock particles that are scratched and unsorted has most likely been transported and deposited by what?
A deposit of rock particles that are scratched and unsorted has most likely been transported and deposited by glacial ice.
What force moves a glacier downhill?
Glaciers can slide down slope for several reasons. First, a glacier is made of ice, which is frozen water. Liquid water is slippery. That is important to remember. Second, gravity is pulling on them making them want to move downhill. Third, when ice is put under a lot of pressure, it can melt. The pressure above the bottom of the glacier can cause some melting on the bottom layer. That can make the glacier slide. Fourth, the sun shining on the top of the glacier can make the top of the glacier melt. The water from that melting can go to the bottom of the glacier and help lubricate the bottom. That can help it slide. Mountain glaciers are always sliding downhill. Snow replenishes glaciers and adds ice to the top. If glaciers melt faster than they are replenished they vanish. Some mountain glaciers have vanished within the last 100 years. A few more are likely to vanish in the next decade.

What is the galloping glacier?
A galloping glacier is a glacier that, unlike others of their type which move at inches per day, shoots ahead feet per day, an astonishing rate for glaciers. The nickname "the galloping glacier" has also been given to an Alaskan black rapids glacier which set a record for its speed. Galloping glaciers are most likely caused by extra melted snow lubricating the glacier.
What de you call a slow-moving mass of ice on a mountain?
Depending on when it was formed, the size and speed it is moving it could be either an Avalanche or Glacier. If it is an incredibly old, slow moving, large, ice mass it is likely a Glacier; however if it is a quickly moving, small (relatively), ice mass it is an Avalanche.
