Fossils usually indicate that the terrain was once underwater, either under an ancient sea where sea creatures became fossilized, or marshland where land and amphibians once lived and died.
It is not along an ocean coastline. There are no volcanoes.
Paleontologists hunt fossils; Along with amateur Paleontologists too!
Active mountain belts are most likely to be found along tectonic plate boundaries, particularly convergent boundaries where two plates collide. This collision forces the crust to buckle and fold, creating mountain ranges. Examples of active mountain belts include the Andes in South America and the Himalayas in Asia.
If a mountain range was not formed by subduction, it likely formed through other tectonic processes such as continental collision, volcanic activity, or uplift due to crustal stretching. The absence of subduction would suggest a different geological history and set of conditions in the region where the mountain range is located.
Some fossils are found in the sedimentary rocks - along with shells and sediment.
Along both Sierra Madre mountain ranges.
All of the points along the line are the same elevation. The answer he wants is for novanet..meaning this answer is irrelevant Dx
Non-volcanic mountain chains are most likely to form along convergent plate boundaries where tectonic plates collide and uplift occurs due to the compression of rocks. These types of mountain chains can also form in regions where large-scale faulting or folding has occurred, such as along transform plate boundaries or within continental interiors.
The mountain range that runs along the center of Italy is the Appenines.
Mountain ranges are typically formed by tectonic plate movements, so the next mountain range could potentially appear along tectonic plate boundaries where one plate is being forced above or below another. A likely location for future mountain range formation could be along the Ring of Fire in the Pacific Ocean, where several tectonic plates converge.
