Question

What are two types of glaciers and how are they different?

Answer 1

There are two primary types of glaciers:
 Continental: Ice sheets are dome-shaped glaciers that flow away from a central region and are largely unaffected by underlying topography (e.g., Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets)
Alpine or valley: glaciers in mountains that flow down valleys.

Answer 2

Answer:

The two types of glaciers are :-

Valley glaciers occur due to erosion on upper stream and deposition into moraine in downstream.

Continental ice sheets don't show any erosion and deposition activities. For valley glaciers water cycle rejuvenates their activity but it has limited role for ice sheets.
