Iceberg or an ice sheet
Any large mass of ice that moves slowly over ice is called a glacier.
An ice sheet is a large mass of glacial ice that covers land, while an iceberg is a large floating mass of ice that has broken off from a glacier or ice shelf and is floating in the ocean. Ice sheets are stationary, while icebergs can drift with ocean currents.
A glacier is a large mass of ice that moves slowly over land due to the force of gravity. Glaciers are formed from the accumulation and compaction of snow over many years.
A large mass of ice floating in the sea is called an iceberg. Icebergs typically originate from glaciers or ice shelves and can vary in size, with the visible portion above water often representing only a small fraction of the total ice mass.
A continental glacier is a glacier that spreads out from a central mass of ice.Hope this helps.Answer 2:A continental glacier is a an ice sheet covering much of a continent
"Iceberg" is a compound word because it is formed by combining the words "ice" and "berg" to describe a large floating mass of ice detached from a glacier or ice sheet.
No, "Iceburg" is not a compound word. It is a misspelling of the correct term "iceberg," which is a large floating mass of ice detached from a glacier or ice sheet.
- It is a large floating mass of ice, detatched from a glacier and carried out to the sea.- A massive floating body of icebroken from glacier. Only about 10 % of it's mass is above the surface of the water.- HOPE THIS HELPS :D - By aaron_98

Glacier
it is when a glacier moves into a large rock mass, cutting its way through.
An ice sheet is a large mass of glacial ice that covers land, while an iceberg is a large floating mass of ice that has broken off from a glacier or ice shelf and is floating in the ocean. Ice sheets are stationary, while icebergs can drift with ocean currents.

A glacier is a large mass of ice that moves slowly over land due to the force of gravity. Glaciers are formed from the accumulation and compaction of snow over many years.
Depending on when it was formed, the size and speed it is moving it could be either an Avalanche or Glacier. If it is an incredibly old, slow moving, large, ice mass it is likely a Glacier; however if it is a quickly moving, small (relatively), ice mass it is an Avalanche.
No, a glacier is not called a rock. A glacier is a large mass of ice that moves slowly over land due to gravity. Rocks may be found within or on top of a glacier, but the glacier itself is made of ice.
