Answer 14

A. Drumlin

An elongated ridge of glacial sediment sculpted by ice moving over the bed of a glacier. Generally, the down-glacier end is oval or rounded and the up-glacier end tapers. The shape is often compared to an inverted, blunt-ended canoe. Although not common in Alaska, drumlins cover parts of the Eastern and Midwestern United States (Irish).

B. Terminus

The lower-most margin, end, or extremity of a glacier. Also called Toe, End or Snout.

Answer 19

D. Lateral moraines are a product of rock fall onto the margin of a glacier. Rock fall is a result of frost weathering of the rock wall and of over-steepening of the cliff by glacial erosion, leading to rock slope failure. The rock debris is carried along the glacier edge as it moves towards the snout.
