How can you use the term glaciation in a sentence about the great lakes?
The Great lakes went through glaciation many thousands of years ago.
What do geologists think happened in the last ice age?
Geologists believe that the last ice age, known as the Pleistocene glaciation, was caused by variations in the Earth's orbit and axial tilt, leading to periods of cooling and glaciation. This resulted in large ice sheets covering much of North America, Europe, and Asia.
How man years ago the last ice age peaked?
The last ice age, known as the Last Glacial Maximum, peaked around 26,500 years ago. This period marked the coldest and most extensive phase of glaciation during the Pleistocene epoch.
During the last ice age how much of the earth's surface was covered by glaciers?
30%
About how many years ago did the last ice age peak?
The last ice age peaked around 20,000 years ago. It was a period of extensive glaciation when large portions of Earth's surface were covered in ice sheets.

What impact did the last Ice Age have on the Agricultural Revolution?
The last period of glaciation had an indirect impact on agriculture as humans were hunter/gatherers during that time, agriculture only starting after the end of the glaciation. In high latitudes debris from the glaciers would have affected the types of soil available for farming and river courses also may have been altered by the ice.

Is landforms created by slow-moving glaciersduring the last Ice Age?
Not all landforms were formed by glaciers during the last glaciation but most of those in high latitudes were, including mountainous regions in lower latitudes.
When did the last ice-age end?
Well for one thing, it didn't. The definition of Ice Age is a period of extensive glaciation with brief interglacials between the points of highest glaciation. By that definition we're are still in the middle of an ice age, a warm bit of one, but still in one. If we weren't in an Ice Age there would be no glacials, whatsoever.
