Answer: They are called Moraines

Explanation: A glacier is a large body of ice originating from land that constantly moves slowly over land. It occurs in almost all parts of the world and makes up about 3/4 of fresh water all over the world.

Glaciers constantly move on land and they do this under their own weight.

As a glacier moves across land, it pushes soil and rocks in front of it and to the sides of it.

The resulting hill formed as a result of this soil movement is called a Moraine.

A moraine is sometimes referred to as a glacial till. It is an accumulation of materials (usually soil and rock) left behind by a moving glacier.
