These mountains form when faults or cracks in the earth's crust force some materials or blocks of rock up and others down. Instead of the earth folding over, the earth fractures and blocks are stacked. Examples include the Sierra Nevada mountains in North America and the Harz Mountains in Germany.

Usually this mountain-building process produces majestic peaks and steep slopes. You should look for these along the other features.
usually mountains formed by faulting has flat tops, like a plateau. fold mountains on the other hand have sharp peaks.
There is only one way to tell if a mountain is still forming. If the peak is gaining height regardless of erosion, it is still forming.
Some glaciers form in a mountain.
If the mountain peak is still gaining in height despite erosion, the mountain is still growing.
by sediments under the ground
Mountains are formed when 2 continental plates continents collide, thus deforming the surface and pushing it further up. They usually stop forming when the plates are fully sutured together. They are then destroyed by erosion overtime, as was the case with the Grenville Orogeny in Canada. If a mountain still exists, it means that the mountains are still forming, or have not fully eroded yet.

The things that cause the fastest change is volcanoes, or 2 equal weighted plates moving together forming a mountain.

How can you determine whether or not a mountain is still forming?i CAN TELL A MOUNTAIN IS STILL FORMING BY MEASURING HOW MUCH THE MOUNTAIN IS GETTING HIGHER

Yes, there are stars still forming in the universe. They form in nebulas.
The uplift stage in mountain forming is the the collision of two continents at a convergent plate boundary.
they don't know yet. they are still trying to figure it out
Mountain building, continental drift.
The mountain range forming the backbone of the United Kingdom is the Pennines.

All i know is a mountain goat, and i know that all of you know that a mountain goat lives in a mountain.
