Answer:  An Esker

Explanation:

An esker( derived from the irish word , eiscir means elevation) is a long, low ridge of  sand and gravel strata  occurring  in glaciated regions and formed by deposition of sediments from glacial melt water.

Eskers appear the same and are usually found in  Europe and North America regions occupying many  kilometres like railway lines.A very common example of such Eskers  is the Eiscir Riada, which runs 200km from Dublin  to Galway.

He artic and the antarctic has different variations of day and night do you agree
AysviL [449]

Answer:

The Arctic and Antarctic have the same variations of day and night, but they are in opposite parts of the year.

Explanation:

The Arctic is the region at and around the Northern Pole, while the Antarctic is the continent at and around the Southern Pole. These are the two coldest areas on Earth, and even in what is considered summer the temperatures are very low. They have a lot of similarities but also some differences.

One feature that falls in both categories, similarity, and difference, are the variations of day and night. The similarity is in the fact that both regions experience sunlight constantly for half a year, and then experience night constantly for half a year. The difference though is in the fact that they occur in opposite parts of the year. When the Arctic has half a year of light, the Antarctic has half a year of night and vice versa, and this is due to the tilted axis of Earth.
