What is the relation between a glacial arête and a col?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A lower pass or saddle on an arête is called a col
A glacial arête is a narrow, sharp ridge formed when glaciers erode the valleys or cirques on two opposite sides. Erosion may leave a lower saddle or pass along this ridge. That lower gap is called a col. Therefore option D correctly describes the relationship; the other choices refer to deltaic, aeolian, or karst features, not glacial ridge terminology.
