Statement I : Portions of glacial troughs may exhibit remarkably flat floors. Statement II : The flat floor in a glacial trough is produced by uniform glacial erosion. Correct Answer Both the statements are individually true and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I

Glaciers cut distinctive U-shaped valleys with a flat floor and steep sides. These are an example of a glacial erosion landform.

Example: As the main glacier erodes deeper into the valley, the tributary is left higher up the steep sides of the glacier.
