What is an oval smooth hill formed by glacial deposition called?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Drumlin
A drumlin is a smooth, elongated oval hill shaped mainly by glacial deposition and movement beneath an ice sheet. Its long axis commonly indicates the direction in which the ice moved, and one end may be steeper while the other is tapered. Thus option A is correct. A gorge is river-cut, a mushroom rock is wind-eroded, and a sinkhole results from subsidence or dissolution.
