Which outcome results when a glacier retreats unevenly?

💡 Explanation

Kettle lakes form because uneven glacial retreat leaves behind ice blocks; these melt and create depressions filled with water. This localized melting forms small kettle lakes, therefore the answer is lake formation, rather than regional dryness or seismic changes.
