Water is one of the most powerful causes of erosion. Sudden or incremental changes occur due to the movement of water - rivers, rain, ocean waves. As rivers flow they carry a load of silt, sand, mud and gravel, called
sediments

Sediment that is push away, as the glacier moves forward, are called
moraines.
When a river becomes mature it begins to meander curving its bed from side to side. As it slows the sediment begins to fall to the bottom.
Sedimentation is the process of sediments being deposited
what is the location on the surface directly above the focus.
epicentre
What is the mantle
The second layer of earth

abrasion
Large rocks caught up in a glacier and then left behind when the glacier recedes are called.
