Landforms and Glaciers
Landforms are natural features that are visible on the surface of the Earth, such as mountains and rivers. Many of these landforms were created long ago by glaciers, including fjords, moraines, drumlins, and glacial lakes.
Answer and Explanation:
As a glacier moves along, some of its ice melts. The melting ice sometimes deposits rocks, sand, and silt into what scientists call an ''outwash plain.'' When a large piece of ice from a glacier breaks off and gets stuck on some of the rock deposited on the outwash plain, it forms a '~kettle.'' A kettle is a depression, or indentation in the ground that forms where the ice melted.
