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.

bagirrra123 [75]
All of the above points are valid for fossils' contributions in understanding the process of evolution. They allow us to study the ancestry, we can see the homologous organs or structures, if fossils are well-preserved; different fossils can lead us to follow the cycles of the changes that occurred during macroevolutions, and fossils can be used to study different populations which had different body structures for surviving in different environmental conditions.
