How do glaciers erode earth's surface?
Eleanor ApodacaThrough abrasion
Little pieces of rock break free and are carried with the glaciers as they move, scraping over the rock beneath them due to friction.

Benjamin AwadGlaciers erode the Earth's surface through processes like plucking, abrasion, and freeze-thaw. Plucking involves the glacier lifting and removing rock fragments. Abrasion occurs as rocks carried by the glacier grind against the bedrock. Freeze-thaw involves water entering cracks, freezing, expanding, and causing the rock to break.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
