A Pediment is a gently sloping erosional surface, commonly covered with a veneer of gravel, cut into the solid rock of a mountain. A pediment, sometimes referred to as a concave slope or fading slope, is a very gently sloping inclined bedrock surface. A concave surface that slopes down from the base of a taller, vanishing desert cliff, an escarpment, or the region around a monadnock or inselberg often makes up such a feature.The western United States is notably famous for its pediments, which are often found in dry to semiarid settings. However, they may also be found in South Africa and along the Andes' front range. In more recent times, it has become clear that pediments may occur in a range of tectonic settings, including temperate and humid climates, and that the nature of the bedrock is not essential to their creation.Learn more about Mountains here:https://brainly.com/question/101267#SPJ4
