Tectonic plate Boundaries, both Continental, can press against each other until the land is lifted and folded over itself. This is often called a Collisional Plate Boundary and can cause earthquakes, however not volcanoes.
How much of the earth's surface do mountains cover? it is 99% of the earth
Mountains formed by magma that reach the Earth's surface are called volcanoes. These volcanic mountains are created through the eruption of lava, ash, and gases from the Earth's mantle and crust. Over time, repeated eruptions build up the volcano, forming a distinct peak.
Yes, mountains are part of the geosphere. The geosphere includes all the solid parts of Earth, such as rocks, soil, and landforms like mountains. Mountains are large landforms that are formed by geological processes within the Earth's crust.
I don't know about mountains, but I know the mountains peaks. 1.Mount Everest 2.K2 3.Kanchenjunga
Approximately 20% of the Earth's surface is covered by mountains. This includes everything from small hills to towering peaks.
There are no exact amount if mountains on Earth. Some are even forming now, so you wouldn't now how much mountains there are on Earth.
=mountains are made from the earth in the ocean=
Upwarped mountains
Earth's mountains form and erode from erupting and by shifting plates.
How much of the earth's surface do mountains cover? it is 99% of the earth
The Earth has more valleys than mountains. Valleys are low-lying areas often formed by erosion, while mountains are elevated landforms. Overall, valleys cover a larger surface area on Earth compared to mountains.
becauuse of the gravity of the earth
You question is meaningless. Earth has mountains as a result of continental drift/plate tectonics, there is no benefit or deficit - mountains just are.
Gravity on the moon is one sixth of gravity on the earth, so mountains on the moon can be much taller. Mountains on earth are eroded by wind and water, but on the moon mountains are not eroded.
yes it does
mountains
No, the highest mountains on earth do not reach into the stratosphere.
