Question

Where do glaciers always form?


in high mountains


in areas where more snow falls than melts


in oceans


in areas very close to Earth’s poles

Answer 1

Glaciers always form **in areas where more snow falls than melts**. This accumulation of snow over time allows the snow to compact and transform into ice, which can then flow under its own weight, forming a glacier. While glaciers are commonly found in high mountains and near the poles, the defining characteristic for their formation is the balance between snowfall and melting.
