Answer 1

Q.56. True. Q. 58. U shaped. Q.59. True. Q. 60. loess Deposits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific evidence proves that the ice core directly record climatic data and that is hidden in their layers in the form of samples of atmospheric bubbles. Like it is in rock forms. They can found based on carbon dating.

U shaped profiles are generally found in the typical profile of canyons and valley eroded and deepened by alpine or valley glaciers. Formed due to the process of glaciation.

In response to normal folding, the Horizontal, Tensile stresses that force the rocks and elongate them can be seen in Dip-slip, Strike-slip, ring faults, etc.

Loess Deposit is a fine-grained material that has been transported and deposited by winds action coming from the glacial outwash plains. Deposits include silt, sand and clays, muds residues of the glacial valleys.
