Question

question 1-3
which of the following does not match the landform with the process that created it?
○ a glacier is a body of dense ice that forms when icebergs melt.
○ a sinkhole is a result of chemical weathering processes from rainwater and groundwater.
○ a coastline is a deposit of sediment that originates in the mountains and is transported by rivers.
○ a delta is a flat area of land where rivers and streams flow into a non - flowing or slow - flowing larger body of water.

Explanation:

• A glacier forms from compacted snow over time, not melting icebergs. Icebergs are pieces of glaciers that break off.
• Sinkholes form via chemical weathering from water dissolving rock.
• Coastlines can accumulate mountain-sediment transported by rivers.
• Deltas form where rivers enter slow-moving water, depositing sediment.

Answer:

A. A glacier is a body of dense ice that forms when icebergs melt.
