If the mountain has jagged edges and lots of exposed rock, it is most likely young. Older mountains have been worn smooth by wind and weather and appear to be more rounded. In the United States, the Appalachians in the east are very old mountains and are generally very rounded and smooth in appearance. In the west, the mountains are jagged and are relatively young mountains.
The peaks are no longer pointy. This generally means that elements such as wind have worn them down over millions of years. Layers of sediment in the rock also may contribute to the age estimation but the first is the main pointer.
by how high it is. If its high probably old if its low probably young but it takes years for a mountain to form so read it carefully if your finding it the exact number
One way to tell the age of a mountain range is by its height. Another way is by how eroded and worn the edges of the rocks are. The more jagged the edges, the younger the mountains. Heavily worn ranges may be so eroded that they become foothills
Old M.C. would be smoother- it had a greater level of exposure to the elements.
A young mountain chain would generally have a smoother shape compared to an old mountain chain. This is because over time, weathering and erosion processes wear down the jagged peaks and steep slopes of young mountain chains, resulting in a more rounded and smoother profile in older mountain chains.
That jesus christ was born. It's apart of an old negro spiritual "got tell it on the mountain."
Old mountains are usually eroded down to their roots (e.g. the Scottish Highlands) while young mountains are usually high a pointy (e.g. the Himalayas). mountains that are jagged at the top are new mountains that are more rounded are old
The Mountain Is Young was created in 1958.
Old mountains are typically rounded and lower in elevation due to millions of years of erosion, while young mountains tend to be rugged and taller due to tectonic activity. Old mountains have more weathered and mature ecosystems, while young mountains have more diverse and rapidly evolving ecosystems.
