<span>The glacial sediment is known as glacial till.

 Glacial till is derived from entrainment and erosion of material by the moving ice of the glacier.

 It is being deposited a distance down -ice to form ground moraines, medical, lateral, and terminal. Glacial till is divided into primary deposits which are rewarded by fluvial transport.
The large rock which is transported by a glacier is called moraines. Moraines are formed from debris which is previously carried along by a glacier and consists of rounded particles which range in size from the large boulders.

 Moraines are of different types, for example, ground moraines, lateral moraines, and recessional moraine.</span>

fgiga [73]

Answer:

The theory of E.O. Wilson's theory of Island Biogeography was originally developed as island biogeography, to explain species richness of actual islands, surrounded by water.

It proposes that the number of species found in an undisturbed environment is determined by immigration and emigration. According to him, the species richness will be the same if this island will have an equal number of the immigration and extinction or emigration of species.
