Question

If ablation is equal to accumulation, a glacier will:


shrink


grow


break apart


maintain the same size

Answer 1

Endometrial ablation is a procedure that destroys (ablates) the uterine lining, or endometrium. This procedure is used to treat abnormal uterine bleeding. Sometimes a lighted viewing instrument (hysteroscope) is used to see inside the uterus. Endometrial ablation can be done by: Laser beam (laser thermal ablation).

Answer 2

Umm, what is the definition in relation to snow and ice?

Answer 3

Oh ok so im thinking its either shrink or break apart

Answer 4

So ablation means to break down ice or snow by evaporation, like you said. BUT the question is say to think about the meaning of ablation as accumulation, or getting bigger perhaps

Answer 5

so if ablation means to accumulate or build up snow and ice onto a glacier then it would become bigger.

Answer 6

Oh ok so its B :)

Answer 7

The real definition means to break down, but again, the question is saying to think of it as if it were accumulating instead. Yes, the answer is B :)
