What else can I help you with?
True or flase mountains are found only on the continents?
The underwater mountain chain is called the mid-ocean ridge
Are mountains found only on the continents?
No, mountains can also be found on the ocean floor. These underwater mountains are known as seamounts or guyots. They are formed by volcanic activity and can rise thousands of feet from the ocean floor.
What are the names of two continents on which matching mountains are found?
The Appalachian Mountains are found in Eastern North America, and the Caledonian Mountains are found in Western Europe, primarily in Scandinavia and Scotland. Both mountain ranges were originally connected before the Atlantic Ocean formed, creating the separation we see today.
How were the fossils symbols and mountains belts helpful in deciding where to move the continents?
Fossils found on different continents suggested that they were once connected due to similar species being found far apart. Mountain belts on different continents lined up when the continents were pieced together, indicating a shared geological history. These pieces of evidence helped in understanding continental drift and the movement of continents over time.
Where are mountains on a globe?
Mountains can be found on all continents around the world. Some of the most well-known mountain ranges include the Himalayas in Asia, the Andes in South America, the Rocky Mountains in North America, the Alps in Europe, and the Atlas Mountains in Africa.
Why are active volcanoes more likely to be found on large continents than small continents?
because large continents are bigger so that means more mountains and some mountains are volcanoes.

How do the locations of mountains support Wegeners idea about how mountains form?
The distribution of mountain ranges across different continents supports Wegener's idea of continental drift. Mountains on different continents were once part of the same supercontinent, Pangaea, and have since drifted apart, explaining why similar mountain ranges can be found on separate continents. This evidence suggests that the movement of tectonic plates over time has led to the formation of mountains.
Are there more mountains or continents in the world?
Mountains Ranges.
How do the locations of mountains support Wagner's idea about how mountains form?
Mountains have usually formed on the edges of continents in narrow bands, where continents have collided in the past.

Mountains that serve as the traditional boundary between Europe and Asia?
The Ural Mountains. They run north to south through Russia for about 2500km from just south of the Kara sea to the Ural river. Only two mountain ranges separate the continents: The Ural Mountains and the Caucasus Mountains.
What is the tallest mountains in the continents?
the Himalayas
