Explanation:
U-shaped valleys, hanging valleys, cirques, horns, and arêtes are just a few of the features sculpted by ice. The eroded material is later deposited as large glacial erratics, in moraines, stratified drift, outwash plains, and drumlins. Varves are a very useful yearly deposit that forms in glacial lakes.

Answer:
As the glaciers expand, due to their accumulating weight of snow and ice they crush and abrade and scour surfaces such as rocks and bedrock. The resulting erosional landforms include striations, cirques, glacial horns, arêtes, trim lines, U-shaped valleys, roches moutonnées, overdeepenings and hanging valleys.
