These scratches and gouges are usually created by a moving glacier, another term would be glacial abrasion. Scratches were formed when boulders and gravel get trapped under the ice. These are best seen after rain and through a low-angle light.

Answer:

These scratches and gouges are usually created by a moving glacier; another term would be glacial abrasion. Scratches were formed when boulders and gravel get trapped under the ice. These are best seen after rain and through a low-angle light. Glacial grooves and striations are gouged or scratched into the bedrock as the glacier moves downstream. Boulders and coarse gravel get trapped under the glacial ice and abrade the land as the glacier pushes and pulls them along.

What must happen to the agent of erosion (wind or water) in order for deposition to occur?

Gnoma [55]

I am pretty sure that it is D

With decomposition, the final deposition of particles(sediments) usually occurs at the mouth of a stream. Then a process called horizontal sorting occurs where the sediments that were once carried down are arranged from big to small. Decomposition in streams takes time so the speed of the water and wind should not affect it nor should gravity or the direction. Streams cannot change direction either unless human involement occurs

Hope this helps :)

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Diferente.

Explicación:

La relación entre la disponibilidad y el consumo de recursos renovables y no renovables entre países desarrollados y en desarrollo es diferente debido a la presencia de tecnología que permite a los países desarrollados utilizar sus recursos renovables y no renovables disponibles. Los países desarrollados están más avanzados que los países en desarrollo en el campo de la tecnología y también la economía, por lo que pueden utilizar recursos renovables en comparación con los recursos no renovables.
