Answer:
Ground moraines is a term used to describe the uneven blanket of till deposited in the low-relief areas between more prominent moraine ridges.
Lateral moraines form along the glacier side and consist of debris that falls or slumps from the valley wall or flows directly from the glacier surface.
Medial moraines are debris ridges at the glacier surface running parallel to the direction of ice flow.
Terminal moraine is a moraine ridge that marks the maximum limit of a glacier advance. They form at the glacier terminus and mirror the shape of the ice margin at the time of deposition.
