Are the Great Lakes the world's largest group of freshwater lakes?
Yes. The Great Lakes are the largest body of freshwater lakes. They were formed by Glaciers that melted. The glaciers came from the north eventually melting to form the Great Lakes.
How did the ice age affect the Canadian shield?
The Ice Age significantly shaped the Canadian Shield through extensive glaciation, which carved and eroded the landscape, creating features like valleys, lakes, and rugged terrain. The massive glaciers scraped away softer rock layers, exposing the ancient Precambrian rocks that form the Shield today. As glaciers retreated, they left behind deposits of sediments and created numerous freshwater lakes, influencing the region's ecology and hydrology. This geological activity also contributed to the rich mineral resources found in the Shield, making it a crucial area for mining.
Are the worlds largest group of freshwater lakes the great lakes?
Yes. The Great Lakes are the largest body of freshwater lakes. They were formed by Glaciers that melted. The glaciers came from the north eventually melting to form the Great Lakes.
