Which of the following describes ice changing the Earth's surface by erosion?

• Water freezes in the cracks of a rock causing bigger cracks to form.

• A mound of rock is left as glacier ice melts and the glacier retreats.

• Sediment frozen in the ice of a glacier moves as the glacier moves.

• Heavy ice presses on sediment causing the formation of sedimentary rock.

The Sun's energy causes changes on Earth. Which of the following is a change caused by the Sun?

• The Sun's energy is reflected off high mountains, causing cold temperatures.

• The Sun's energy heats the Earth, contributing to evaporation.
