The plates are pushing together causing them to move up and form mountains
"Young" mountain ranges as well as earthquakes, volcanoes and tectonic plates tend to be located on or near the boundaries of tectonic plates.
because the tectonic plates are puching in to each other causing the land to push up
The movement of tectonic plates has created all of the continents by moving apart. Mountain ranges were formed by the plates running into each other.
when tectonic plates move toward each othe forms
push into each other
Mountain ranges are formed at tectonic plate boundaries where plates collide, causing intense pressure and uplift of the Earth's crust. This can lead to the formation of fold mountains, such as the Himalayas, or volcanic mountains, like the Andes. Additionally, some mountain ranges are formed through faulting and uplifting processes, creating features like the Rocky Mountains in North America.
Yes. Because the mountain ranges are formed from two plates pushing against each other and most earthquakes are formed because of the slipping of two tectonic plates.

Mountain ranges move because tectonic plates are continuously moving
"Young" mountain ranges as well as earthquakes, volcanoes and tectonic plates tend to be located on or near the boundaries of tectonic plates.
Mountain Ranges(:
Mountain Ranges
Large mountain ranges such as the Himalayas were produced through the collision of tectonic plates. In the case of the Himalayas, the Indian Plate collided with the Eurasian Plate, causing the crust to crumple and uplift, leading to the formation of the mountain range. The force of the collision continues to push the Himalayas higher each year.

When the earth's tectonic plates push against one another, the buildiing pressure causes the edges of the plates to rise, forming mountain ranges.
