2. What is a glacier's relationship with the surface gradient?
- It's flow changes it
- It flows parallel to it
- It flows against it
3. As Ice flows over a gentler gradient it decelerates and backs up, creating an area of:
- Compressing
- Extending
4. Why do the centre and surface of a glacier move faster than the sides and base?
- Due to climate change
- Due to friction from the surrounding valley
- Due to pressure melting point
5. As Ice flows over a steeply sloping bed, movement is likely to speed up, resulting in a thinner glacier with crevasses – an area of:
- Extending flow
- Compressing flow
