How does a stalagmite form?
A stalagmite forms when water containing dissolved minerals drips from the ceiling of a cave. As the water drips down, the minerals are deposited on the floor, slowly building up over time to create a cone-shaped sedimentary deposit known as a stalagmite.
Do stalagmites form on the roof?
No, stalagmites form on the floor of caves when mineral-rich water drips from the ceiling and deposits minerals over time. Stalactites, on the other hand, form on the ceiling as the same mineral-rich water drips from above.
Why are stalagmites and stalactites called those names?
Stalactites hang tightly to the ceiling of a cave, while stalagmites might grow to reach the cave floor. The names reflect their formation as water drips from the ceiling to form stalactites, and drips onto the cave floor to form stalagmites.
Why is my Frigidaire refrigerator leaking water on the floor?

In geography what are stalagmites?
In areas where the rocks are made of limestone, water will dissolve the limestone and form underground caves. In these caves water containing dissolved limestone will drip from the roof. As the drips form some of the water evaporates and limestone is deposited out of solution. Thus, from where the drips are occurring and on the floor below, pilers start to form, the pilers on the floor are called 'stalagmites' and the pilers hanging from the roof are called 'stalactites'.

Where does the water from the defrost cycle go?
The water from the defrost cycle typically drips into a drain pan located at the bottom of the refrigerator or freezer. From there, it evaporates due to the heat produced by the compressor. Some refrigerators also have a drain tube to direct the water to a tray on the exterior of the appliance where it will evaporate.
