Answer» Answer: A large area of water surrounded by land. When the glaciers melted, water filled depressions, forming LAKES. Glaciers also carved deep valleys and deposited large quantities of earth, pebbles, and boulders as they melted. These materials sometimes formed dams that trapped water and created more lakes. The Great Lakes give US important benefits, such as providing water and FOOD for human use, pollination and water purification to support ecosystems, and RECREATIONAL opportunities and aesthetic benefits for humans to enjoy.
