Consider the following statements:

Cirques, moraines, and eskers are the depositional landforms.

Cirques are often found at the heads of glacial valleys.

Moraines are long ridges of deposits of glacial till.

Eskers are ridges made of sands and gravels, deposited by glacial meltwater flowing through tunnels within and underneath glaciers.

Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Question

Cirques are often found at the heads of glacial valleys, these are the most common of landforms in glaciated mountains. They are deep, long, and wide troughs or basins with very steep concave to vertically dropping high walls at its head as well as sides.
Moraines are long ridges of deposits of glacial till.
Eskers are ridges made of sands and gravels, deposited by glacial meltwater flowing through tunnels within and underneath glaciers, or through meltwater channels on top of glaciers. Over time, the channel or tunnel gets filled up with sediments. As the ice retreats, the sediments are left behind as a ridge in the landscape.
