Answer:
1, 2 and 3
Notes: Moraines - Glacial deposits
A moraine is material left behind by a moving glacier. This material is usually soil and rock. Just as rivers carry along all sorts of debris and silt that eventually builds up to form deltas, glaciers transport all sorts of dirt and boulders that build up to form moraines.
Barchans - Aeolian deposits
Barchans are crescent shaped dunes formed due to Aeolian deposits.
Delta - Fluvial deposits
Delta is formed via fluvial deposits.
