* Glacier Melt: As the base of a glacier melts, water seeps into cracks and crevices in the bedrock beneath it.
* Freezing and Expansion: When this water freezes, it expands, putting immense pressure on the rock.
* Rock Removal: This pressure can eventually be strong enough to break off pieces of the bedrock, which become embedded in the ice.
* Transportation: As the glacier moves, it carries these plucked rocks along with it, transporting them to new locations.
This plucking process is a key factor in glacial erosion, shaping landscapes and creating unique geological features.
