What are the most common types of Mountain formations on Earth?
The most common types of mountain formations on Earth are folded mountains, fault-block mountains, and volcanic mountains. Folded mountains are created when tectonic forces compress and deform rock layers. Fault-block mountains form when tectonic forces cause blocks of the Earth's crust to uplift or subside along faults. Volcanic mountains are formed by volcanic activity, where magma rises to the surface and solidifies to create a mountain.
Is Mount Everest a fault block mountain?
Mount Everest is not a fault block mountain; it is a fold mountain. It was formed through convergent tectonic plate movement, where the Indian Plate is colliding with the Eurasian Plate, causing the Himalayan mountain range to rise up. Fault block mountains are formed from the uplift of large blocks of the Earth's crust along fault lines.
