B. Ridges or mounds of glacial material deposited close to the ice marine
C. Winding ridges of stratified sand and gravel
D. None of the above

Answer 1

Drumlins are elongated hills in the shape of an inverted spoon, formed by the movement of glaciers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Drumlins are elongated hills in the shape of an inverted spoon. They are formed by the movement of glaciers. As the glacier flows over the land, it picks up and carries large amounts of sediment. The ice reshapes the sediment into a streamlined hill with a steep side facing the direction that the glacier was moving. The elongated shape of drumlins is a result of the glacier depositing more sediment at their up-glacier end, causing them to become longer in that direction.
