its not mountain glaciers but its valley glaciers
Valley glaciers are not associated with being found on the coastal regions. They are typically found in mountainous areas and their movement is influenced by gravity and topography.
Africa is geographically diverse, with a range of landscapes that include both mountains and flat regions. Some areas, like the Atlas Mountains in North Africa and the East African Rift Valley, are mountainous, while others, such as parts of the Sahara Desert and savannahs in East Africa, are relatively flat.
As the air cools during the night, it tends to flow downhill.
The slowest movement in a glacier typically occurs at the base, particularly in the zone of deformation, where the ice is subjected to increasing pressure and friction from the underlying bedrock. Additionally, the glacier's margins, or edges, tend to move more slowly compared to the center due to friction with the valley walls or surrounding terrain. As a result, the ice can become more stagnant near these areas, leading to a slower overall movement compared to the glacier's central region.
Two types of glaciers are valley glaciers, which flow down valleys, and ice sheets, which cover large land areas. Valley glaciers are narrower and are found in mountainous regions, while ice sheets are massive and cover extensive areas.
The highlands are areas that are mountainous regions or on a mountainous plateau. The climates in these regions are much cooler than the temperatures of the valley floors.

Size and location. Valley glaciers are smaller, flowing down valleys in mountainous regions, while ice sheets are vast expanses of ice covering large land areas like the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets.

Continental glaciers are vast sheets of ice that cover large land areas, while valley glaciers are elongated glaciers that flow down mountain valleys. Continental glaciers are typically found in polar regions and cover large portions of Antarctica and Greenland, while valley glaciers are common in mountainous regions worldwide.
all dessert, except for the Nile Valley and Nile Delta; some areas are mountainous.

A U-shaped valley is a geological formation formed by the erosive action of a glacier. Ice moving downhill carves out a broad, U-shaped valley with steep sides and a flat bottom. These valleys are characteristic of areas that have been shaped by glacier activity.
Not exactly. Most of Alaska is covered in mountainous areas, but there are some in tundra that brown bears can be found roaming on. But the majority of the brown bear population is found in mountainous areas.
Valley glaciers are formed in high altitudes (e.g. mountains) and continental glaciers are formed in high latitudes (e.g. Greenland). Therefore, they both cover land areas but continental glaciers generally cover more area.
