What are rounded mountains?
They are mountains without a tip. It is rounded at the top. Rounded mountains are almost always old mountains.As mountains gets older, their peaks get flatter. They are still considered mountains as they pass mountain elevation requirements.There valleys are very wide too. The opposite is a young mountain with shark peaks, narrow valleys, and much taller. For ex., Earth's tallest mountain, Mt.Everest, is a very young mountain.

Why do old fold mountains have rounded peaks?
this is because the ranges get worn down due to erosion
What are the characteristics of young mountains and old mountains?
Young mountains are characterized by sharp, rugged peaks, steep slopes, and active geological processes like earthquakes and volcanic activity. Old mountains have smoother, more rounded peaks, gentler slopes, and exhibit less intense geological activity due to millions of years of weathering and erosion. Old mountains are often lower in elevation compared to young mountains.
Distinguish between old fold mountains and young foldmountains define?

Old mountains become rounded due to the process of erosion, where wind, water, and ice wear down the sharp peaks and ridges over time. This gradual process smooths out the rocky surfaces and gives the mountains a more rounded appearance.
What are the differences between old and new mountains?
Old mountains are characterized by their rounded peaks and lower elevations due to erosion processes over millions of years. They tend to have a more subdued appearance compared to new mountains, which have sharp, rugged peaks and higher elevations resulting from tectonic forces that are still actively shaping the landscape. Additionally, old mountains often have gentler slopes and more developed ecosystems, while new mountains may have more unstable geological features and younger, less diverse habitats.
What is one way to tell young mountains from old mountains?
In general, the younger the mountain chain, the taller it is. Plate tectonics builds mountains by thrusting the crust upward, while erosion wears them back down over millenia. So the Himalayas are a new (and in fact, still growing) mountain chain, while the Appalachians are one of the oldest chains still identifiable as mountains.
