You can transform a v-shaped valley into a u-shaped valley by a glacier.
What shape valley does a glacier leave?

What have a what shape while what have a what shape?
River valleys, U, Glacier Valleys, V.
What is the differences between v-valley and u-valley?
V-shaped mountain valleys are formed by the effects of running water. U-shaped mountain valleys are formed by the grinding action of moving glaciers.
How do glaciers form u-shaped valleys?
A U-shaped valley begins as a V-shaped river valley. If the temperature is low enough, a glacier (river of ice) forms inside the valley. As the glacier slowly moves, it scours the valley floor when the temperature rises and the glaciers melts away, a U-shaped valley is left behind.
Which mountain can transform V- shaped river valleys into U-shaped valleys?

What can transfrom a mountain vshaped river valley into a you shaped valleys?
A 'V' shaped valley has been formed by a stream or river. A 'U' shaped valley has been formed by the action of a glacier. Therefore, should a glacier form in the mountains, the ice, pushed downhill by the weight of fresh snow constantly being added high above, will gouge out the 'V' shaped river valley and form the 'U' shaped glacial valley.
