How were land bridges form?
They were already formed but the were covered with water.
Did the ice age create the land bridge?
Yes, the ice age played a significant role in creating land bridges. During periods of glaciation, huge amounts of water were trapped in ice sheets, causing a drop in sea levels. As a result, land bridges formed, connecting previously isolated areas, such as the Bering Land Bridge between Asia and North America. These land bridges allowed the migration of plants, animals, and even early human populations between continents.
How was the land bridge formed?
Land bridges aren't actually formed, they are already there but covered by the sea. When a glacial period starts, the water evaporated from the oceans falls as snow on the land and then compacts as ice which does not melt. Continual removal of water from the oceans over thousands of years causes sea level to drop and exposes the "land bridges".
