Explanation:

An armchair like depression is caused by the glacial erosion is called as corrie or cirque. The cirque can be formed when the snow gets accumulated into the shallow depression on a side of any mountain.

The freezing in the winter and the thawing in the summer can cause rocks to get withered and broken up. It results into the enlargement of a hollow.
