in the picture below, a slow moving mass of ice has gradually weathered and eroded rock away in a mountain valley. the landscape of rock has greatly changed.
which sphere was affected in the transformation?
question 4 options:
geosphere: because the cryosphere scraped rock away as it slowly moved
biosphere: because the cryosphere flooded the valley eliminating trees and plants
biosphere: because the hydrosphere flooded the valley eliminating trees and plants
geosphere: because the hydrosphere scraped rock away as it slowly moved

geosphere: because the cryosphere scraped rock away as it slowly moved

Explanation:

The glaciers are basically slow moving masses of frozen water, or rather ice. All the ice in the world is part of the cryosphere. The glaciers move downward, as their movement is influenced by the gravity.

As the large ice mass moves downward, it creates lot of pressure on the geosphere in which it slides upon. The ice of glaciers is very heavy, and helped by the movement, it manages to change the part of the geosphere on which it moves. This creates numerous different shapes in the landscape, as the movement of the glacier manages to erode the geosphere on which it moves upon.

The glaciers and the shapes made in the landscape from them can be found primarily in the higher latitudes, or in the places that have higher elevation in the lower latitudes.

chinese civil war took place over a long period of time between 1927 and 1950. the war was interrupted when japan invaded china in 1936 and by world war ii. the war was fought between the nationalist government of china, also called the kuomintang (kmt), and the communist party of china (cpc).
