☆☆☆☆☆Small meteorites hit Earth everyday, but large meteorites hit once a year.
The two processes are abrasion and plucking.
What processes lead to glacial erosion? Describe them.
The two main processes that lead to glacial erosion are plucking and abrasion. Plucking is the process by which a glacier picks off rocks as it blocks over the land. The rock fragments freeze to the bottom of the glacier, gouging and scratching the bedrock as the glacier advances in the process of abrasion.

It could be days or YEARS before the major earthquake. Plate tectonics are always moving.

Single celled organisms.
seismic wave are earthquake waves the types are l - waves, p - waves and s- waves they are recorded by seismograph or also called seismograph they form by explosion's, earthquakes and movement (waves) underground.
The 3 main types of glacial erosion are plucking, abrasion and freeze thaw.

In some deserts the water disappears as it is diverted to irrigation for crops and for municipal water supplies. Some of the water simply evaporates or is absorbed by the dry soil.
During the recent ice age, glaciers covered almost 30 percent of earths land.
