Both fold mountains and ocean trenches result from plates moving together.
If both landforms occur in the same area, they are found in association with subduction on a destructive plate boundary(e.g: The Andes Mountains, Western coast of South America).
The Andes formed from the Nazca plate subducting under the South American plate. The continental plate crumples and folds. The result is a fold mountain range. The Andes is formed.
If fold mountains occur by themselves, they are in areas where collision is taking place on a collisional plate boundary(e.g: The Himalayas).
The Himalayas formed from two continental plates which collided into one another- The Indo-Australian plate collided into the Eurasian plate. They crumple and fold. The result is a fold mountain range. The Himalayas is formed.
Either way, the sequence relating to their formation is similar.
Hope this helped :)

Because it is an Island sitting in the middle of a large ocean round which is to be found the "Ring of Fire" - destructive plate margins along which volcanic events and earthquakes are common.
In the main along the mid oceanic ridges and along oceanic trenches.
Both, constructive in that volcanoes are created along plate margins, destructive in that when plates meet, one is subducted (sinks under the other) and is destroyed as it melts into molten rock into the mantle below.

what are mountains formed by blocks of crust moving along a fault
It is a ridges of sediment that accumulate along the margins of river channels on floodplains.

Features such as mountain ranges, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes are commonly formed along tectonic plate boundaries on continents. These boundaries can result in the uplift of land, the formation of volcanic mountains, and the release of seismic energy. Additionally, continental plate boundaries may also create deep oceanic trenches and transform faults.

mountains usually occur in narrow bands along the edges of continents
The distribution of mountain ranges across different continents, such as the Appalachian Mountains in North America and the Caledonian Mountains in Europe, supports Wegener's idea of continental drift. These mountain ranges were once connected when the continents were part of a supercontinent, and their alignment provides evidence for the movement of land masses over time. Additionally, the presence of similar geological features and rock formations on separate continents suggests a shared history of mountain building.

Pangaea, the supercontinent, was formed during the late Paleozoic Era, specifically in the Permian Period. It existed approximately 300 million years ago.
