The amount of water on the planet is fixed; it neither increases or decreases. Glaciers are sheets of moving ice. This water to form these extensive sheets must come from somewhere. The water comes from the most extensive store on the planet; the oceans. Ice Ages always corresponds to periods of low sea level because much of the ocean water is is land locked as glaciers.

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

This structure has not been highly beneficial for the organism

Explanation:

Vestigial structures are cells, tissues, and/or organs that have no apparent function. Vestigial structures are retained during the course of the evolution, but often they are degenerate and/or atrophied (due to disuse). In general, these structures are homologous to anatomical structures that play a specific role in evolutionarily related species. Some examples of vestigial structures include, among others, the presence of the appendix in humans and wings in flightless birds.
