Andes, convergence between South American Plate and Pacific Plate
the Andes
The Himalayan range is one of the youngest mountain ranges on the planet and consists mostly of uplifted sedimentary and metamorphic rock. According to the modern theory of plate tectonics, its formation is a result of a continental collision or orogeny along the convergent boundary between the Indo-Australian Plate and the Eurasian Plate.The Andes are the result of plate tectonics processes, caused by the subduction of oceanic crust beneath the South American plate. The main cause of the rise of the Andes is the compression of the western rim of the South American Plate due to the subduction of the Nazca Plate and the Antarctic Plate.
it is Andes
The longest mountain ranges is the Andes Mountains in South America. The mountain ranges stretch estimate is more than 5,000 miles.

The Andes mountain range is being formed by the convergence of the Nazca and South American plates. This process involves the oceanic Nazca Plate subducting beneath the South American Plate, leading to the uplift of the Andes mountains.
Mountain ranges are rising primarily in tectonically active regions with converging tectonic plates, such as the Himalayas in Asia where the Indian Plate is colliding with the Eurasian Plate, and the Andes in South America where the South American Plate is subducting beneath the Nazca Plate.
The Andes mountain range is created by Pacific Plate diving under the South American Plate. The lighter materials on the subducting plate are easily melted, and thus create the volcanic chain that is the Andes.
The Andes Mountain Range is a result of the Nazca Plate subducting under the South American Plate.
The Andes mountain range in South America is an example of a mountain range that forms near a subduction zone. The subduction of the Nazca Plate beneath the South American Plate has contributed to the uplift and formation of the Andes.
Its the Andes mountain range I think.
The South American country which is entirely in the Andes mountain range is Chile
The Trench and Andes are on the boundaries of the Nazca and South American Plates. Both of those landforms are the result of a subducting Nazca Plate.
