Answer:
The formation of hill like landform(Drumlin)is made up of Glacier.
Explanation:
Drumlins is literally known as " Littlest Ridge" and formed by the activity of Glaciers. They are elongated hills of glacial deposit. They are generally low land regions and long axes parallel to the path of glacial flow. It is also inverted boat shape deposition.
Glaciers are bulk and perennial bulk of ice or snow which are mainly formed due to temperature variation in the region.
There are two types of Glaciers. Some of them are :-
1. Continental Glacier - These are dome shaped and mainly unaffected due to topography. Antarctic and Greenland are the example of this type.
2. Alpine Glacier- These are found in the mountainous region of every continent, except in Australia. Siachen is the example of this type of glaciers.
Glaciers are the great source of drinking water in the hilly region. But in recent decades the glaciers are melting with a fast pace due to Climate Change, Global Warming and other reasons.
