Answer:

Ice Sheet - Shrinking in a glacier

Moraine - Rock piles left by glaciers

Countour Planting -  One way to prevent soil erosion

Retreating - Continent Sized

Explanation:

Ice Sheet: Shrinking of ice sheets in a glacier is a result of the burning of fossil fuels that building up greenhouse gases in the environment and leading to global warming. When ice exposes to heat, it shrinks and melts.

Moraine: A moraine is defined as the debris or piles of rock left behind by a moving glacier.

Countour Planting: Contour farming or planting is a farming technique in which plants are grown in row patterns across a slope following its elevation contour lines. It prevents soil erosion by capturing at least twice the rainwater.

Retreating: Retreating is the process in which either ice melts or erode. Continent size can be affected by the retreating ability of glaciers.

Hence, the correct answer is:

Ice Sheet - Shrinking in a glacier

Moraine - Rock piles left by glaciers

Countour Planting -  One way to prevent soil erosion

Retreating - Continent Sized
