The Andes Mountains :)
*****
I would like to add the Himalayas, which rose when the Indian Plate collided with the European plate.
The Himalayan Mountains were formed as a result of the collision between the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates. This collision forced the Earth's crust to crumple and uplift, creating the massive mountain range that continues to grow taller each year.
The Ural mountains formed as a result of the collision of Europe with Asia and are folded mountains. Fold mountains are mountain ranges that are formed when two of the tectonic plates that make up the Earth's crust push together at their border. The extreme pressure forces the edges of the plates upwards into a series of folds.
The Jura Mountains and the Zagros Mountains are examples of the fold mountains. The fold mountain is formed as a result of the effects if the folding on layers within the upper part of the crust of the earth.
Fold mountains are formed when tectonic plates collide, causing compression and the folding of rock layers. Fault mountains are created by the movement along fault lines, where one side of the fault is pushed up relative to the other. Both types of mountains result from the Earth's tectonic activity.
Mountains are formed through tectonic processes such as continental collision or volcanic activity, resulting in great heights and jagged peaks. Hills are formed through a variety of processes like erosion, faulting, or volcanic activity on a smaller scale compared to mountains, and typically have gentler slopes. Both mountains and hills are elevated landforms that result from various geological processes over long periods of time.

ocean-continent convergence
An easy way to explain how mountains are formed is through geological activities. Most mountains are formed as a result of volcanic eruptions while others are formed through erosion and other activities.
folded mountains
Some examples of mountain ranges created by continental-continental convergence are the Himalayas (resulting from the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates) and the Alps (formed by the collision of African and Eurasian plates).
Yes, there are mountains and hills on the moon. Some of the lunar mountains are formed as a result of impacts from meteorites, while others are formed from ancient volcanic activity. These mountains and hills can be found across the lunar surface.
