What is a small lake in a water-filled cirque called?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Tarn
A tarn is a small mountain lake occupying a cirque after the glacier has retreated or melted. The cirque acts as a natural basin that stores water, often from snowmelt and precipitation. An oxbow lake forms from a cut-off river meander, a lagoon is separated from the sea, and loess is sediment rather than a lake type. Therefore option B is correct.
