Appalachian- two continents colliding
North American Cordillera- terrane accretion
Aleutian- oceanic convergence
Andes- an oceanic plate and continental plate colliding
The Carbet Peaks are a mountain range in Martinique.
None.
because it is a fold mountain...some humor is good in life.:)
If your question is "How are earthquakes and volcanos triggered by plate tectonics?", then here is my best explanation. Earthquakes are caused by two tectonic plates smashing together and buckling either upward (Forms a volcano/mountain) or downward (forms a trench/faultline) to trigger an earthquake. If one of the plates goes under the other then I believe the magma leaks out and forms a mass of volcanic rock that can either create a land mass, or make an underwater volcano/mountain.

Earthquakes
"Young" mountain ranges as well as earthquakes, volcanoes and tectonic plates tend to be located on or near the boundaries of tectonic plates.
is it easy to create or use any mode of transport on mountain ranges
Yes, mountain ranges are often located along tectonic plate boundaries where earthquakes are more likely to occur. The movement of these plates can cause stress build-up along fault lines within or near the mountain range, leading to earthquakes.

a subduction zone where one plate is forced beneath the other, leading to the formation of mountain ranges, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes.
Convergent boundaries are responsible for creating mountain ranges. When two tectonic plates collide, the land is forced upwards, creating intense pressure that results in the formation of mountain ranges. Examples of mountain ranges formed by convergent boundaries include the Himalayas and the Andes.
yes, eg in Britain and Italy, where there are old faultlines
There are many mountain ranges in California because of tectonic forces like earthquakes or volcanoes.
Mountain ranges are often formed by tectonic plate movements that can also cause earthquakes and volcanic activity. Thus, areas with prominent mountain ranges are more likely to have earthquake epicenters and volcanoes due to the tectonic forces at work. The distribution of mountain ranges can serve as an indication of potential earthquake and volcanic activity in a region.
Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates along faults in the Earth's crust, while volcanoes are formed by the movement of magma from the mantle to the surface through eruptions. Mountain ranges are created by the collision of tectonic plates, causing uplift and deformation of the Earth's crust.
