The hydrosphere, though more specifically it is a part of the cryosphere.
The Earth's sphere that includes oceans, groundwater, lakes, and glaciers is known as the hydrosphere. It encompasses all forms of water on the planet, covering about 71% of the Earth's surface. The hydrosphere plays a crucial role in supporting life, regulating climate, and shaping geological processes.
The cryosphere, which includes glaciers, causes downhill movement of soils and water through processes like erosion, deposition, and transport. As glaciers move, they can pick up and carry sediments, shaping the landscape and contributing to the movement of water and materials downhill.
Glaciers that are now only located in polar regions include the Greenland Ice Sheet in the Arctic and glaciers in Antarctica. These ice formations are subject to melting and disintegration due to climate change, which poses a threat to sea levels and ecosystems worldwide.
No, not all landmasses have large glaciers today. Glaciers require specific conditions such as cold temperatures, sufficient precipitation, and high elevations to form and persist. Therefore, you would expect to find large glaciers in regions that meet these criteria, such as polar regions and high mountain ranges.

well all glaciers are gone except for some icebergs and kettles or moraines at anokijig will teach you what the glaciers did
By making it an electromagnet. Include it in a circuit.

Sea levels would fall, because a lot of the earth's water would then be tied up (frozen) in these glaciers.
If this is an analogy, the answer would be sphere.
