Stalac"tites", top, or on the roof of the cave. Stalagmites form on the floor of caves.
Stalactites and stalagmites are corresponding rock formations , stalactites being the ones on the roof of the cave and stalagmites the ones on the cave floor. Why are they formed? They are formed because water leaking into the caves craves out the rocks slowly into stalagmites and stalactites.
When stalactites and stalagmites join it is called a column

No, it is stalactites that form on the ceilings. Stalagmites form on the cavern floors.
Stalagmites form when water from the stalactite drips down water and that water has minerals in it

Which ones? Oh, and "stalactites". They form in caves developed in limestone.
Within caves in carbonate rocks.
Stalactites and stalagmites can be found in various caves throughout the UK, such as Cheddar Gorge in Somerset, Wookey Hole Caves in Somerset, and Dan yr Ogof in Wales. These formations are created over thousands of years by mineral-rich water dripping from the cave ceiling and depositing calcium carbonate.
Kuwait doesn't have caves as big to have stalactites and stalagmite
Precipitated as stalactites, stalagmites etc - and it is the primary constituent of the limestone in which the vast majority of caves form!
Lime stone caves!

Stalactites and stalagmites are rock formations that hang in caves. Stalactites are formed from water dripping from the ceiling and gradually depositing minerals that build up over time. Stalagmites, on the other hand, form from water dripping from the stalactites and building up on the cave floor.
