🔍 Key Concepts

• Sea ice vs. glacier ice (land ice) – know which types form from frozen seawater and which break off from land-based glaciers or ice shelves • Characteristics and typical sizes of icebergs, bergy bits, and growlers • Terminology used in marine ice navigation for small pieces of ice of land origin

💭 Think About

• Start by asking: which of these options is associated with pieces that have broken off a glacier or ice shelf, rather than freezing directly from seawater? • Consider which terms you’ve seen in connection with icebergs and which with sea surface conditions like frazil, slush, or newly formed sea ice • Eliminate any choices you recognize as types or shapes of sea ice that forms on the ocean surface itself

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options are clearly sea-ice forms (created by freezing ocean water) and set those aside • Recall that fragments of icebergs have specific names depending on their size—match that naming convention to one option • Verify from your study materials which term is defined as ‘a small piece of glacier or ice-shelf ice’ of land origin
