  1. Drumlins are streamlined hills left by continental glaciation, which are continental glaciers. Bunker Hill is one of several drumlins in Boston, Massachusetts.

    Striations form when glaciers drag rocks over bedrock

    A moraine is a land form left by direct glacial deposition and moraines are landforms of glacial sediment.

    Terminal moraines are large piles of till that can form islands when sea level rises.

    Medial moraines form when two tributary glaciers coalesce.

    Ground moraines are made of thin till left by receding glaciers.

    Lateral moraines form at the boundary of a glacier and a valley wall.

    Recessional moraines form as glaciers halt in their recession
