What process is most responsible for building California and mountains?
Plate tectonics can create mountains. Plate Tectonics can also cause earthquakes in California.
Explains locations of mountains, trenches, and volcanoes?
plate tectonics
Are any of the mountains on the moon formed by plate tectonics?

What features are the result of plate tectonics?
some features caused by plate tectonics would be folded and faulted mountain chains. subduction zones are also some important features caused by plate tectonics. the oceanic crust goes underneath the continental crust creating a subduction zone at the plate boundaries.parvaiz mansoori
What causes mountains to grow?

What is the plate boundary of the himalaya mountains?

What process is most responsible for building California and mountains?
Plate tectonics can create mountains. Plate Tectonics can also cause earthquakes in California.
Why are mountains lacated where they are?
Mountains are formed when the plate tectonics overlap
How can non-volcanic mountains be created by plate tectonics?
Plate tectonics create mountains by shifting. They ran into each other and the crashes created solid mountains. Mountains are like wrinkles in the earth.
What is the process when mountains are formed again?
Plate Tectonics.
What forces build up mountains?
plate tectonics
Samilarties and differences between volvano and plate tectonics?
Volcanos are mountains in which lava comes out and plate tectonics is the theory of plates moving.
What is evidence for plate tectonics?
Coriolis effect.
What the earth would be like with no plate tectonics?
Their would be no mountains.
Explains locations of mountains, trenches, and volcanoes?
