Fold mountains are formed from the collision of continental tectonic plates. Since neither plate subducts under the other, the colliding plates wrinkle and fold like a rug being pushed into a wall.

Folded mountains are created when plates are bent, squeezed and stretched.

No, the rocky mountains were not formed on a destructive plate. That is wrong, they are fold mountains, they were formed on a weakening in the plate, and millions of years ago the plate was under pressure and then it buckled and the Rockies were formed.
Volcanic activity can form fold mountains or block mountains. Fold mountains are formed when tectonic plates collide. Block mountains are formed when fault block shifts.
Fold mountains are formed due to the collision of plates and earth movements.

The Jura Mountains and the Zagros Mountains are examples of the fold mountains. The fold mountain is formed as a result of the effects if the folding on layers within the upper part of the crust of the earth.
Fold mountains are mountains that are formed when the land forms a wave like shape due to the tectonic plate movements underneath so yes the Ural Mountains are fold mountains
Fold mountain or mountain chains are formed by the collisions between continental plates.
Fold mountains are formed from the collision of continental tectonic plates. Since neither plate subducts under the other, the colliding plates wrinkle and fold like a rug being pushed into a wall.
Old fold mountains are mountains that were formed millions of years ago through the process of folding and faulting of the Earth's crust. These mountains have undergone significant erosion and are typically characterized by rounded peaks and deep valleys. Young fold mountains, on the other hand, are mountains that are still actively being formed through tectonic processes, such as the collision of tectonic plates. These mountains tend to have sharp, rugged peaks and steep slopes.
