The area where you feel the burning sensation is in the ball of the foot â medically referred to as the forefoot â under the top or heads of the metatarsal bones, the five long bones in the feet that connect to the toe bones.
Glaciers erode the land in two ways, by plucking and abrasion. Plucking is the process when a glacier picks up rocks. The weight of a glacier makes it easy to break rocks and boulders in pieces.
Today we will learn about one agent of erosion and deposition: Gravity. Procedure: Write objectives, rapid mass wasting, slow mass wasting, talus slope on board. Explain that the downhill movement of sediments is called mass wasting. Have students give examples of mass wasting and write them on the board.
