Answer:

Glaciers not only transport material as they move, but they also sculpt and carve away the land beneath them. A glacier's weight, combined with its gradual movement, can drastically reshape the landscape over hundreds or even thousands of years. The ice erodes the land surface and carries the broken rocks and soil debris far from their original places, resulting in some interesting glacial landforms.

probably rich in hydrogen compounds like methane (CH4), ammonia (NH3), hydrogen cyanide (HCN), water (H2O), and formaldehyde (HCHO). Also some N2, CO2 but LITTLE or NO free oxygen.

Molecules of H2 and He move really fast, especially when warm, that they eventually all escaped Earth's gravity and drifted off into space.
