Answers
1) U-shapped valleys are formed by Valley glacier
Valley glaciers carve U-shaped valleys, as opposed to the V-shaped valleys carved by rivers. During periods when Earth’s climate cools, glaciers form and begin to flow downslope. Often, they take the easiest path, occupying the low V-shaped valleys once carved by rivers. As glaciers flow through these valleys, they concentrate erosive action over the entire valley, widening its floor and over-steepening its walls. After the glacier retreats, it leaves behind a flat-bottomed, steep-walled U-shaped valley.
2) The mount verusious is in stratovolcano in Italy
Mount Vesuvius (/vɪˈsuːviəs/ viss-OO-vee-əs; Italian: Monte Vesuvio Italian pronunciation: [ˈmonte veˈzuːvjo; -suː]; Neapolitan: Muntagna Vesuvio [munˈdaɲːə vəˈsuːvjə]; Latin: Mons Vesuvius [mõːs wɛˈsʊwɪ.ʊs]; also Vesevus or Vesaevus in some Roman sources)[1] is a somma-stratovolcano located on the Gulf of Naples in Campania, Italy, about 9 km (5.6 mi) east of Naples and a short distance from the shore. It is one of several volcanoes which form the Campanian volcanic arc. Vesuvius consists of a large cone partially encircled by the steep rim of a summit caldera caused by the collapse of an earlier and originally much higher structure.
