How does a kettle lake form?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A hollow fills with water after buried glacial ice melts
A kettle lake is a depression formed when an isolated block of stagnant glacier ice becomes buried in sediment and later melts. The overlying deposits collapse or subside into the empty space, creating a hollow that collects rainwater, groundwater, or meltwater. Option A is therefore correct. Dust lifting, wave erosion, and levee construction are unrelated processes and do not produce kettle lakes.
