Explanation / Answer

Table 2

Glacier with medial moraines-

Evidence - The evidence is that Glacier has more than one source. When ice melts it forms a ridge of material along the valley.

Location - they are found at the junction between two glaciers.

Hanging Valley -

Evidence -evidence that very early in youth, if not from the beginning .of stream development, tributary streams normally cut down to accordant

Location - The hanging valley in the bottom right photo is located along Milford Sound on the South Island of New Zealand.

Lateral moraines from past Glacier -

Evidence - lateral moraines are usually preserved as high ridges.

Location - Lateral moraines are found deposited along the sides of the glacier.

Rochee Moutonee-

Evidence - past Glacier activity

Location - found at surface of Great Slave Lake, Canada, North West Territories

Esker

Evidence - the old quarries along Blakeney Esker are evidence of this.

Location - More than a thousand eskers have been found in Michigan.

Horn

Evidence -  · Paleoanthropological evidence indicates that both the Levantine corridor and the Horn of Africa served, repeatedly, as migratory corridors between Africa and Eurasia.

Location - The Horn of Africa denotes the region containing the countries of Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia

Fjord

Evidence - Evidence of fjord spawning by southern Norwegian Atlantic halibut

Location - Fjords are found mainly inNorway, Chile, New Zealand, Canada, Greenland, and the U.S. state of Alaska.

Highland ice cap

Evidence - total Pleistocene ice cover in Tasmania at -2000 km2. (Colhoun and Peterson, 1986). Three principal lines of evidence imply that there was more extensive glaciation of the Central Highlands

Location - It is found on single mountains such as Mount Kilimanjaro and also large areas of high elevation such as the Plateau of Tibet
