<span>Heavy rain on a fairly even slope creates "sheet runoff." The water flows down slope as an even sheet. Any dips in the slope will collect more runoff water, which will be able to erode more strongly. If the force of this water is not stopped it will produce a gully . The gully will collect more and more water and cause even more erosion. In time it will remove the soil down to solid bedrock.

Because once they are all gone we will not get them back for several millions of years or we may never get them back
The correct answers are:
- At Earth's pole;
- At high latitudes;
- At high altitudes;
The glaciers are a frozen ice mass that is slowly moving from a higher toward a lower region. For them to exist, specific conditions are required, the most important of which is that the climate is very cold throughout the whole year. The places that provide suitable conditions for the existence of glaciers are the Antarctica (where most of them are located), the island of Greenland, as well as the very high mountains that have cold weather throughout the whole year, especially at their highest parts, like the Alps and the Himalayas.
The correct answer is D. Air moving along lines of constant longitude
Explanation:
In geography, the word meridian refers to an imaginary line that connects the North pole and the South pole, this includes the main meridian called Prime Meridian as well as multiple longitude lines that determine East and West.
On the other hand, the meridional circulation refers to a natural phenomenon in which air and air masses move from North to South and vice-versa following longitude lines or the imaginary lines that divide the planet vertically. Additionally, the meridional circulation affects climate especially in terms of extreme weather. According to this, the meridional circulation means "Air moving along lines of constant longitude".
