Answer:

Plucking

Explanation:

Glacial erosion, the picking up and movement of earth beneath a glacier, is also known as plucking. Plucking occurs in "valley glaciers." First, the bottom part of the glacier melts due to the friction generated by the movement of the glacier. This allows ice to infiltrate cracks in the bedrock. As this ice freezes and thaws, it causes further cracks, gradually loosening the rocks. The rocks become trapped in the glacier, leading to erosion.

Give an introduction about hepatitis B along with its symptoms and preventive measures​
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hepatitis B is a viral infection. This infection attacks the liver and is a source of acute and chronic disease. It is transmitted by body fluids like blood, and can also be transmitted by sex if one is infected, or by childbirth by the infected mother. It is also transmitted if people are sharing needles or syringes. So prevention would be done by practicing safe sex, testing ourselves before we have kids, and using clean syringes and needles that nobody used before us. Besides these, there is a vaccination that is safe and works.

Most don't report symptoms when infected. But some can experience illness for several weeks and their skin starts yellowing along with the eyes, urine becomes darker, nausea and fatigue along with vomiting or abdominal pain.
