Explein how a galcier is formed?

Answer 1

In the far north, the far south, and on mountain tops, it gets cold. It snows. In some places, it takes a long time for the snow to melt. Sometimes the snow does not melt during the summer. Instead, the snow stays there and the next years snow lands on top of the old snow. This creates a snow field. As time goes by, the snow field becomes more and more compressed. The snow field turns to ice. It turns into an ice field. Then, the ice field begins to flow in one or more directions. At that point it became a glacier.
