Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • The glacier's weight that is combined with the gradual movement, can alter and reforms the landscape over hundreds the thousands of the years. The ice then erodes the land surface and this can break the rocks and the soil debris far from their original places, resulting in various glacial landforms.
