Describe the various types of glacial moraines?

there is glacial drift and that is the act of rock material carried and deposited by glaciers. there is till which is the act of unsorted rock material that is deposited directly by a melting glacier and there is stratified drift which is the result of a glacial deposit that has been sorted and layered by action of streams or meltwater


Is there a difference between till and until?

No


How are glacial drift and till alike How are they different?

Till or glacial till is unsorted glacial sediment. Glacial drift is a general term for the coarsely graded and extremely heterogeneous sediments of glacial origin.Glacial till is that part of glacial drift which was deposited directly by the glacier.Its content may vary from clays to mixtures of clay, sand, gravel and boulders. This material is mostly derived from the subglacial erosion and entrainment by the moving ice of the glaciers of previously available unconsolidated sediments.A glacier is a large persistent body of ice that forms where the accumulation of snow exceeds its ablation (melting and sublimation) over many years, often centuries. Glaciers slowly deform and flow due to stresses induced by their weight, creating crevasses, seracs, and other distinguishing features. They also abrade rock and debris from their substrate to create landforms such as cirques and moraines. Glaciers form only on land and are distinct from the much thinner sea ice and lake ice that form on the surface of bodies of water.

What is the difference between a till and a moraine?

Till is the mixture of sediment that glaciers deposit and a moraine is the same thing, but just deposited at the edges of a glacier.
