Answer:

U-shaped valleys are formed from V-shaped valleys. ... During glaciation the ice moves down the V-shaped valley due to its weight and gravity. It tears away huge rocks from the sides and base of the valley. The glacier freezes onto the surrounding rocks previously weakened by freeze-thaw, by a process known as plucking.

Definition: U-shaped valleys form through glacial erosion. Glaciation develops in established v-shaped river valleys where the ice erodes the surrounding rocks to create a “U” shaped valley with a flat bottom and steep sides. Glacier movement is driven by gravity.
