Answer 1

Answer:

Option C => They were deposited by glaciers.

Explanation:

Whenever we have a polished bedrock it is very important to know that the landscape can be found in places that are full of or has glacials. It is a process or phenomenon known as Glacial polish that causes large boulder in the area(even after the glaciers has melted). Therefore, option (C) is the correct Option in the question above.

Note that, the term " Glacial polish'' simply means the process in which the surface of bed rocks are grinded by graons and many or several pieces of rock.
