How do icebergs form?

Answer
A
They form when seawater freezes.
B
They form when groundwater freezes.
C
They break off from the coast of Iceland.
D
They break off large ice sheets found at the poles.

Explanation

Icebergs form when chunks of land ice break away, or calve, from glaciers and large ice sheets, often near the poles. They are not made by seawater freezing; that forms sea ice. The correct choice is “They break off large ice sheets found at the poles.”
