What continental mountain ranges are usually associated with?

Some continental mountain ranges are usually associated with forming as a result of tectonic plate collisions or convergent boundaries. These processes involve the plates pushing against each other, leading to the uplift of the Earth's crust and the formation of mountain ranges. Examples include the Alps in Europe, the Andes in South America, and the Rocky Mountains in North America.
