Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Valleys usually feature rounded sides that mimic a V or a U shape. U-shaped valleys form through glacial erosion. Glaciation develops in established v-shaped river valleys where the ice erodes the surrounding rocks to create a “U” shaped valley with a flat bottom and steep sides. Glacier movement is driven by gravity.
