Mountains are formed when the land is being pushed up by strong forces in the Earth, such as plate tectonics. Some mountains ar formed by areas being thrust up over other areas; some mountains are volcanoes that have died out, or become extinct. In addition to the last answer, a mountain has to be over 2,000 feet, otherwise it is just a hill. There are many contributing factors that go into the formation of mountains. These can be uplift from plate tectonics, or vulcanism. (A volcano, if it is over 2,000 ft., whether active or otherwise can still be considered a mountain). The major controlling factors of orogeny (mountain building) come after the actual mountain has come about. There must be an equilibrium between uplift and erosion (glacial or fluvial) in order to maintain the mountain, otherwise it would be eroded back to base level (generally considered to be sea level) - "Tectonic aneurism" hypothesis. A mountain is generally steeper than a hill.
no their not
It is not the smallest it is actually the tallest mountain in the world
No, actually Mountain Everest is the largest mountain in the world.
Mt Isa is not actually a mountain. It is a mining city in western Queensland, Australia.
No. Pumas and mountain lions are actually the same animal.
It actually depends on the tower, and the mountain. It could be any one, we have to know the height/altitude.
Actually Louisiana does have Driskill Mountain which is more of a hill. The elevation is 535 feet so it is not a mountain.
Arabic meaning the mountain.
rocky? - The mountains Rocky climbed in Rocky IV were actually located in Canada and they did not have names.
There are actually three bluebirds - Western, Eastern and Mountain. The Mountain bluebird looks quite a bit different than the other two.
