Is Mauna Kea a fold mountain?
Mauna Kea is a shield volcano, not a fold mountain. It was formed by volcanic activity, with its characteristic gentle sloping sides built up over time by countless eruptions of relatively fluid lava. Fold mountains, on the other hand, are created by tectonic plate movements causing rock layers to be uplifted and folded.
