Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Eskers are composed of stratified drift that is deposited by meltwater streams flowing inside or on top of glaciers. Nunataks are exposed peaks of mountains that rise above ice sheets or glaciers. Lateral moraines are ridges of unsorted debris that are deposited along the sides of glaciers. Valley trains are long ridges of stratified drift that extend from glacial termini down valleys. Drumlins are elongated hills of glacial till that have a steep end and a gentle slope on the opposite end.
