Answer: (d)

A valley that has been formed by glacial erosion has characteristic U-shaped with a wide, flat floor and very steep sides. In glacial erosion, the main valley is eroded much more rapidly than the tributary valley as it contains a much larger glacier.

After the ice has melted a tributary valley, therefore, ‘hangs’ above the main valley so that its stream plunges down as waterfall. Such tributary valleys are called a hanging valley.
