Both constructive and destructive, constructive because it helps create the mountains, destructive because some of the areas around the mountain can collapse, crack, and damage other land forms.

How do fault block mountains occur?
Where two plates move away from each other tension forces create many normal faults.
What are some examples of uniformitarianism?
the forces that build mountains and erode mountains and the rates at which these forces operate are the same today as in the past.
How do internal and external forces affect mountains?
They will move the tectonic plates underground, which then will create an earthquake or avalanche. That will definitely take an edge off the side of the mountain.
Do mountains create waste?
yes, mountains create waste. The unusefull left over small rocks.
What forces build up mountains?
plate tectonics
What types of tectonic force create mountains?
The type of tectonic forces that create mountains are called converging plates. As two continental plates push together, the stress forces them both upwards. Because of this the Himalayas are still growing.
What do the forces of faulting folding and volcanic action create?
mountains
How do forces inside the earth shape the land?
the forces create mountains, valleys, volcanoes, canyons, etc.
What type of glaciers can create cirques on the side of mountains?
valley glaciers
What type of weathering forces helped create the atoll?
Chemical and physical weathering
How do fault mountains occur?
Where two plates move away from each other tension forces create many normal faults.
The pushing forces of two plates moving together form which type of mountain?
It forms folded mountains
How do fault block mountains occur?
Where two plates move away from each other tension forces create many normal faults.
Do mountains create life?
Yes, mountains have helped create life.
How do forces inside the earth create ang change landforms?
Mountains are created by tectonic plates colliding together and pushing the edges up into the air.
