Answer:

The two main types of "glacial erosion" are "abrasion and plucking".

Explanation:

  • Out of the three most "significant types of glacial erosion", abrasion and plucking are the most important ones.
  • Erosion due to abrasion is said to have occurred when the ice from the glacier rakes against a rock and causes the rock to fragment down.
  • Glacial erosion due to plucking occurs when the ice from the glacier slides between the cracks in the rocks and cause the cracks to enlarge.
  • This action of the glacier ice eventually plucks off smaller pieces of rocks from a larger rock causing of the rock to erode.
