How were the Ural mountains formed?
there formed by Pangaea a word created by Alfred Wegner
How are Foothills formed?
same way mountains are but not as compressed as much
Cliffs and basins are formed when glaciers pluck out giant blocks of what?
Rocks/Mountains.
How did Europes many mountain ranges affect its development?
Europe's many mountain ranges affect its development by separated groups of people from one another as they settled the land thousands of years ago. This is one of the reasons why different cultures devevolped across the continent
Why are the Himalayan mountains getting taller?
Some mountain ranges, such as the Himalayan Mountain Range are still growing because the tectonic collision that created them is still occuring. The rate of uplift exceeds the rate of erosion. Many mountain ranges, such as the Appalachian Mountains on the North American continent are a result on plate collisions that occured several hundred million years ago, and erosion has greatly eroded their height. At one time, the Appalachian Mountains were higher than Mount Everest, the current highest point on the planet's surface.
The ural mountais formed as a result of the collision of Europe with asiathe urals are therefore most likely to be?
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 himalaya mountains were formed in a collision at a?
the himalaya mountains were formed in a collision at a convergent boundary
What mountains in north America were formed by a continent-continent collision in the paleozoic?
The Appalachian mountains in North America were formed by a continent-continent collision in the Paleozoic.
How were the Appalachians formed?
The Appalachians were formed by layers of sedimentary rock uplifting and folding. Basically North America collided with Europe and Northern Africa.
The Himalaya mountains were formed in a collision of what boundary?
convergent boundary
What are mountains formed by the collision of the indo Australian plate and the Eurasian plate?
The Himalayas formed :]
How fold mountains made?
Fold mountains are formed due to the collision of plates and earth movements.
What mountains are formed by a continental collision boundary?
Mt. Everest and theHimalayas.
What type of mountains is not formed due to plate collision?
Fault-block
How were the Andes mountain and south America mountain formed?
the andes mountains were formed by a continental collision
Does ocean to ocean collision make mountains?
No. It is the collision between two tectonic plates that can cause mountains. For example: when the Indian plate collided into the European plate, the Himalayan mountains were formed.
What is the difference between young and old fold mountains?
One of the features of young fold mountains is that these are formed at destructive collision of tectonic plate boundaries. The Earth's crust are pushed to the surface therefore forming a series of fold mountains.
