The area where you feel the burning sensation is in the ball of the foot â medically referred to as the forefoot â under the top or heads of the metatarsal bones, the five long bones in the feet that connect to the toe bones.
Glaciers erode the land in two ways, by plucking and abrasion. Plucking is the process when a glacier picks up rocks. The weight of a glacier makes it easy to break rocks and boulders in pieces.
Erosion by Valley Glaciers. Valley glaciers form several unique features through erosion. You can see some of them in Figure below and at this link: [Insert a link to a video that shows features eroded by valley glaciers.] As a valley glacier flows through a V-shaped river valley, it scrapes away the sides of the valley.
