Answers
1.When the overall price level decreases so that inflation rate becomes negative, it is called deflation.
2.Sand dunes are created when wind deposits sand on top of each other until a small mound starts to form. Once that first mound forms, sand piles up on the windward side more and more until the edge of the dune collapses under its own weight.
3.an isolated hill or mountain rising abruptly from a plain.
4.A river is a body of water flowing through a definite channel from a source at a higher level to a mouth located at a lower elevation. A glacier on the other hand is a body of solid ice moving out of a snowfield.
5. A moraine is any glacially formed accumulation of unconsolidated glacial debris that occurs in both currently and formerly glaciated regions on Earth, through geomorphological processes. ... Terminal moraines are found at the terminus or the furthest (end) point reached by a glacier. AND ITS DAIGRAM IS AT ABOVE PIC
6.An arête is a thin, crest of rock left after two adjacent glaciers have worn a steep ridge into the rock. A horn results when glaciers erode three or more arêtes, usually forming a sharp-edged peak. Cirques are concave, circular basins carved by the base of a glacier as it erodes the landscape.
7.the part of the land adjoining or near the sea.
8.Beaches provide protection to residents living near the ocean by acting as a buffer against the high winds and waves of powerful storms, and help drive economic activity important to nearby communities. ... In addition, overuse by visitors can damage sensitive habitats, such as beach dunes, and create marine debris.
9.The waves of the sea constantly pound the edge of the land. They change the shape of the coastline in two ways. First, the waves smash against the rocks and grind them into pebbles and sand. ... Beaches are formed, and the coastline is built up where the sea drops them.
There are 2 pics in left there is 5 number level daigram and in right please read and do please
Answer:

2 What are sand dunes? Sand dunes are created when wind deposits sand on top of each other until a small mound starts to form. Once that first mound forms, sand piles up on the windward side more and more until the edge of the dune collapses under its own weight.

5a mass of rocks and sediment carried down and deposited by a glacier, typically as ridges at its edges or extremity.
