Why erosion and deposition maximum on mountains?
Mountains are NOT a place where deposition (of sediments) are at a maximum. However they ARE a place where erosion (of sediments) is at a maximum. This is because mountains are steep and there is therefore allot of energy in the water flowing off mountains. This energy breaks down and removes the rocks from which the mountains are made.
How was the bedrock formed in the lowlands?
When the mountains got eroded, sediments broke off, and rolled down the mountain into the lowlands, that were oceans at the time, and the pressure from all the rocks fused them together, making it a sheet of sedimentary rock.
