Which surface feature formed by glaciers is shaped like an armchair?
Cirques.
What type of glaciers are sharp pyramid shaped and peaks formed by alpine glaciers?
horns
Which of these California geologic features formed as the result of erosion by glaciers?
Yosemite Valley is a California geologic feature that formed as a result of erosion by glaciers. The glaciers carved out the U-shaped valley, leaving behind steep granite walls and beautiful waterfalls. Other examples include the glacially-carved cirques and hanging valleys in the Sierra Nevada mountain range.
Are valleys formed your erosion or weathering?
Erosion and weathering: Glaciers form 'U'-shaped valleys, while rivers form 'V'-shaped valleys.
Which is a glacier feature caused by erosion?
In cross-section: A 'U' shaped valley is formed from glacial erosion. A 'V' shaped valley is formed by river erosion.

Where are v-shaped valleys found?
they are formed where glaciers have passed.
How are glaciers landscapes different from landscapes formed by water?
water cuts V-shaped valleys; glaciers carve out valley's that are U-shaped
What is the differences between v-valley and u-valley?
V-shaped mountain valleys are formed by the effects of running water. U-shaped mountain valleys are formed by the grinding action of moving glaciers.
How are valleys formed by glaciers?
Valley Glaciers tend to for U-shaped valleys.
U shaped and hanging valleys are both types of landforms created by what type of physical feature?
glaciers
