They smooth earths surface
Where is most of the solid water on earth?
glaciers and polar ice caps
How many glaciers are there on earth?

What percentage on earth's surface is covered in glaciers?

What are heaps of earth moved by glaciers?

How would sea levels be affected if all of Earth's glaciers got bigger and new glaciers formed?
Sea levels would fall, because a lot of the earth's water would then be tied up (frozen) in these glaciers.
How is land reshaped glaciers?
Glaciers reshape the earth by sitting there and slowly turning to water, and as that water flows down it erodes the land that it is on therefore (reshaping) the earth.
