A basic mountain should be formed from the collision of continental crust and oceanic crustAnswerWhen an oceanic and a continental crust collide, the heavier oceanic crust tends to subduct under the lighter continental crust. Because of the collision and corresponding compression and also because of volcanism related to dehydration and melting of the subducted plate a mountain range is formed. The Andes mountain range is a, if not the, most typical example.
They are related in shape, structure, and age; the different mountain ranges in a region make up a mountain system.
The most direct way that an earthquake is related to mountain building is this: Two techtonic plates converge or come together. This causes the the rumbling known as the earthquake. one plate or portion of the earths crust is forced under another and when it gets deep enough, that material becomes so hot that it melts and rises up to the surface creating sometimes fissures and other times like in the cascade mountains; volcanoes and mountain ranges.
No. Most mountain form from orogenic lift and are not related to volcanic activity.
Plate tectonics is the theory of continental drift. As Pangaea is what scientists and geologistsbase continental drift on (as it was the original cluster formation of all continents), they are very closely related and usually are within the same field of study.

Typically continental plate convergence will result in an orogeny event, or a mountain building event. As the plates converge, the crust will deform, but there will be no plate subduction, and so continent to continent convergence is not related to volcanism. Large thrust faults are often associated with continental convergence zones as well.
Because faults are greatly related to Earthquakes and mountain building.

A mountain range is a single mass of mountains or narrowly space mountain ridges with or without peaks. The mountains within the range are generally closely related in position, direction, formation, and age; a component part of a mountain system or of a mountain chain. The theory about continental drift says that mountain ranges rise up as one continent pushes against another.
Each Word document has same margins. The default margins are 1 inch at the top and bottom of the page and 1,25 inch from the left and right hand sides of the page. However, if desired, default page margins can be changed numerically.
Mountainous, mountainside, mountaineer, mountaineering -- are all related to mountain
They are related because they are part of the ocean
The catamount also know as eastern mountain lion. It is an endangered species and it related its larger cousin the western mountain lion.
I was unable to answer this question. :(
plates are part of a mountain that makes it move
They are related in shape, structure, and age; the different mountain ranges in a region make up a mountain system.
