As a mountain is eroded, the mountain root (the deep-seated portion of the mountain that stabilizes it) may become exposed or covered by eroded material. The root may also be weakened or eroded, contributing to the overall erosion of the mountain.
The Appalachian Mountain chain is one of the oldest mountain ranges and has undergone significant erosion over millions of years.
It depends on what the mountain is made of and whether or not it is still being uplifted. The schist rock at the bottom of the Grand Canyon was once at the bottom of island mountain. In that sense, the mountain still partially exists. The age of the rock--between 1.8 and 2 billion years old.
The Alps, in Europe, are 1.2 billion years old.
The cool damp air is forced to rise when it encounters the mountain range. As it rises, it cools and condenses, leading to the formation of clouds and precipitation on the windward side of the mountain. This process is known as orographic lift.

There are not a thousand years in a century. There are a hundred years in a century. A thousand years is ten centuries.
The numeral word for a thousand years is millennium.
It should be 'occurs' and the answer is the letter M.
The age of a mountain varies depending on its formation process and geological history. For instance, the Rocky Mountains are around 80 million years old, while the Appalachian Mountains are over 480 million years old. Some mountains, like those formed by volcanic activity, can be much younger, emerging in just a few thousand years. Overall, mountains can range from a few thousand to hundreds of millions of years old.
One thousand years is a millennium.
A thousand years ago is a millennium ago.A millennium is a thousand years.A millenium
China is known for growing crops on mountain terraces built over two thousand years ago. One famous example of this is the Longji rice terraces in Guangxi province, which have been cultivated by the Zhuang people since the Yuan dynasty.
