A fjord is associated with which type of valley?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A drowned glacial U-shaped valley
A fjord is a long, narrow sea inlet formed when seawater floods a glacial U-shaped valley. Glaciers first carve the broad U-shaped valley, and later sea-level rise or land subsidence submerges it. Therefore option B is correct. A deflation hollow is wind-eroded, a point bar is a river deposit, and a dry karst cave develops through limestone solution, so those alternatives describe different processes.
