Explanation:

Bulbs are made up of layers and layers of modified leaves called scales. These scales provide the nutrition for the growing plant. They have roots at the bottom that anchor the plant.

Corms are similar to the bulb but they are more solid and do not have scales. They are kind of round but with a flat top. As the leaves of the plant grow, the corm shrinks until it is gone. New corm grow from the buds that grow out of the original corm.

Rhizomes are underground stems. They are fleshy and they grow horizontally. Eyes or buds grow around the rhizomes sometimes on the side or on top. Other examples would be irises and ginger.

Stolons are also known as runners. They creep or grow horizontally. They usually grow on the surface, but can also grow underground, just below the surface. These roots grow nodes where each node grows roots which become new plants.

Tubers are fat and round and do not grow horizontally. Instead, they stem out of the eyes and each shoot can become a new plant. You can cut them into pieces to propogate them, as long as there is at least one eye on the replanted piece.

glacial erosion, the picking up and movement of earth beneath a glacier, is also referred to as plucking. erosion and transportation of individual pieces of bedrock, especially large "joint block occur as a result of this glacial erosion. plucking is type of erosion in which rocks become frozen into the bottom and sides of the glacier.as the glacier moves downhill it 'plucks' the rocks frozen into the glacier from the ground.
