Answer:

Explanation:

Weathering is the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on Earths surface. Once a rock has been broken down, a process called erosion transports the bits of rock and minerals away. ... Water, ice, acids, salts, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering

Deltas

7. Deltas: When soil gets deposited between the distributaries in a triangular form, it is referred to as Delta. Deltas are very fertile lands found at the mouth of the river.

Meltwater from the glacier fills up the hole, making a lake. ... As glaciers wind through the landscape, they churn up rock and earth at the ice front, leaving behind mounds of earth called moraines. The moraines often act as barriers, causing meltwater to pool and form a lake.

Wave-cut platforms form when destructive waves hit against the cliff face, causing an undercut between the high and low water marks, mainly as a result of abrasion, corrosion and hydraulic action, creating a wave-cut notch. This notch then enlarges into a cave.

Small hills of sand in a desert are called sand dunes.
