Answer:

e. To create valleys, glaciers have to be constantly advancing.

Explanation:

Although glaciers look like massive, solid blocks of ice, they actually move in a very slow manner, which is difficult to detect by the naked eye. The pressure that the glacier receives from the weight of the ice causes it to deform. As these changes occur, the melt water at the bottom of the glacier allows it to slide. It is this movement that allows for the formation of glaciers, as glaciers have to be constantly advancing in order to form valleys.

Sublimation is the change from a solid state to gas - but precipitation is not in solid form, so this is not the correct answer.

Condensation is the change from gaseous form to solid.

The correct answer is: evaporates: this means that the water drops change into gas

Does the coriolis effect occur at the poles or the equator and why?
prohojiy [21]
The actual paths of winds—and of ocean currents, which are pushed by wind—are partly a result of the Coriolis effect. ... The key to the Coriolis effectlies in the Earth's rotation. The Earth rotates faster at the Equator than itdoes at the poles. This is because the Earth is wider at theEquator.

Anyways, I’m in the U.S. , I think it’s a wonderful thing but there shouldn’t even be a reason to have this month**. There’s no reason for Women to be oppressed but here we are. Equality would’ve probably made this world a bit better but we’ll never know. All in all, I think it’s amazing and anyone who disagrees is a hater *shrugs* .
