Stalagmites, while fascinating geological formations, do not exhibit the characteristics of life. They are formed from the deposition of minerals, particularly calcium carbonate, from dripping water in caves. Unlike living organisms, stalagmites do not grow, reproduce, respond to stimuli, or undergo metabolism. Instead, they are inert structures that can provide insights into the environmental conditions of their surroundings over time.

I checked in translator.com, and it says stalagmite
It can be seen that the stalactite has united with the stalagmite below
When a stalactite and stalagmite meet, they form a column or pillar.

A Stalagmite forms on a cave floor from the dripping of Mineral Rich water.
When a stalactite and stalagmite join, they form a column or pillar. This occurs when mineral deposits from dripping water from the stalactite unite with the mineral deposits growing up from the stalagmite, eventually creating a solid column structure.
When a stalagmite and stalactite meet and grow together, they form a column.

It is called a stalaGMite. StalaCTites hang from the top. Memory key: the C in stalactite means Ceiling - and G in stalagmite means ground.
