What else can I help you with?
Are there sea shells on mountains?
Yes, some mountains were once underwater, so it's possible to find sea shells on mountains. These sea shells are typically found in areas where tectonic activities have pushed the sea floor up to form mountains.
What are rocks in the sea called?
Rocks in the sea are typically referred to as sea rocks or underwater rocks. They can also be called submerged rocks or marine rocks.
What type of rocks form the altai mountains?
The Altai Mountains predominantly consist of granite, sedimentary rocks like limestone and shale, and metamorphic rocks such as schist and gneiss. These rocks have been shaped by tectonic forces and weathering processes over millions of years to create the rugged landscape seen today.
How do sea floor mountains form?
Sea floor mountains, also known as seamounts, form through volcanic activity where magma rises up through the Earth's crust and creates underwater peaks. These mountains can also form through tectonic processes such as the movement of tectonic plates or hotspots. Over time, as volcanic activity continues or tectonic plates shift, these mountains can grow in size and shape.
What mountains are produced at continent- continent convergence?
Mountains produced at continent-continent convergence are called fold mountains. These mountains are formed when two continental plates collide and the rocks are compressed, folded, and uplifted to form large mountain ranges, such as the Himalayas.
The best evidence of crustal movement in Iceland is?
The folding of sedimentary rocks into mountains need a great deal of crustal movement. Most sedimentary rocks form below sea level in marine enviornments. The horizontal sedimentary rocks have Tobe folded and uplifed thousands of meters to form mountains.
Can mountains form under the sea?
Mountains can form anywhere there is seismic activity, even under the sea. Some of the Hawaiian Islands are in reality the peaks of mountains!
Hutton thought that rocks from the sea floor could be pushed up very high to form?
mountains, thus proposing the theory of uniformitarianism to explain the formation of geological features on Earth.
What is the mountains the river and the sea which form Europe's eastern boundary?
The Ural Mountains,the Ural river,and the Caspian Sea.
What type of rock are mostly found in mountains?
volcanic mountains are mostly associated with igneous rocks and sedimentary rocks at their slopes can be found due to weathering,but mountains such as fold mountains can contain igneous rocks,metarmophic ro cks and even sedimentary rocks at their slopes
What mountains form part of the Europe-Asia boundary and stretch from the Black Sea to the Caspian Sea?
the caucasus mountains
What are the mountains rivers and the sea which form europes eastern boundary?
The Ural Mountains, The Ural River, and the Caspian Sea
What is most of Greece made of?
Rocks, soil, vegetation; mountains, plains, rivers and sea.
What can form when compression squeezes rocks at convergent place boundary?
Mountains
