Answer:
e. To create valleys, glaciers have to be constantly advancing.
Explanation:
Although glaciers look like massive, solid blocks of ice, they actually move in a very slow manner, which is difficult to detect by the naked eye. The pressure that the glacier receives from the weight of the ice causes it to deform. As these changes occur, the melt water at the bottom of the glacier allows it to slide. It is this movement that allows for the formation of glaciers, as glaciers have to be constantly advancing in order to form valleys.

Answer:
Option: D. It cooled very slowly.
Explanation:
Iceland is known as the Land of Fire. The country is present in the plate boundary of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. Being on the top of the Ring of Fire, it has active volcanoes. Hexagonal basalt columns formed from a volcanic eruption. Basalt columns are the result of a cooling process that changes the appearance of the lava. Basalt is a volcanic rock rich in iron and magnesium created from the heated magma that emerges as lava during an eruption.
