Across
  1. 2. movement of nutrients from the soil because of rain
  2. 6. all glaciers form this
  3. 10. a boal shaped valley on the side of a mountain
  4. 12. weathering by living things
  5. 14. appointed mountain formed by several glaciers
  6. 15. rocks worn down because of friction
  7. 16. in front of a glacier melt-water washes out dirt and creates a braided river
  8. 17. frost wedging, water gets into creaks and freezes
  9. 19. created when a smaller glacier empties into a larger one
Down
  1. 1. when rain falls it absorbs some co2 this makes the water slightly acidic
  2. 3. most common type of glaciers
  3. 4. bedrocks break into flat sheets parallel to the rock surface, caused by the expansion of rock when the pressure of overlying rock is removed by erosion
  4. 5. or mechanical weathering breaking down of bedrock into smaller pieces without changing what it is
  5. 7. breaking down of rocks by their chemical formula
  6. 8. the process of rock pieces being placed in different location after erosion
  7. 9. they cover a large area and are very thick they cause rocks beneath and sink into the mantle
  8. 11. process that moves soil and rock to reshape the land
  9. 13. the process that breaks down rocks
  10. 18. are large sheets of ice that move slowly across the land because of gravity
  11. 19. organic matter part of the soil must have to grow
