Correct and rewrite the incorrect statements :
A. The ice on the lateral side of the glacier moves faster than the ice at the base.
B. The depositional work by river shappens because of gentle slope, reduced speed and transported sediments.
C. A river flows at a faster speed than the glacier.
D. The speed of the glacier is more on both the banks than in the middle.
C
A is incorrect since the ice in the middle of a glacier actually flows faster than the ice along the sides of a glacier
B is incorrect: The rivers originate at a much higher altitude from the sea level. Here, the river flows at a great speed and therefore, its power to erode is great.
C is correct: The river originate at a much higher altitude from the sea level. Hence, the river flows at a great speed and therefore, its power to erode is great.
D is incorrect: The sediments of the river get deposited in its bed and on the banks
