Mt. Kilimanjaro, Mt. Sinai, Ras Dashen, Mt. Margherita, Mt. Kenya
The major mountain in central Africa is mount Kilimanjaro
The two major fold mountains in Africa are the Cape Fold Mountains and the Atlas Mountains.
Kilimanjaro and Table Mountain.
The highest mountain in South Africa is the peak Mafadi (3450 meters) which is part of the Drakensberg range and lies on the border of South Africa and Lesotho. The highest peak in Southern Africa is to be found inside Lesotho. It is Thabana Ntlenyana, which is 32 metres higher that Mafadi.
Both the Kalahari and the Namib Deserts are Sub-Saharan deserts in Africa.
namib and Kalahari are two cold deserts in Africa
The major deserts of Africa are the Sahara, the Kalahari and the Namib. The Sahara is further subdivided into smaller, local deserts.
North Africa is mostly desert (the Sahara).
A fold mountain is where two pieces of land crash and make fold mountains.
Atlas Mountains, Mount Kilimanjaro, and Drakensburg Mountain.
The Himalayas are Fold Mountains
a fold mountain occurs
Fold and thrust mountain ranges can be found at convergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates collide. Examples of fold and thrust mountain ranges include the Himalayas in Asia and the Rocky Mountains in North America.
The two major deserts in Africa are the Sahara and the Kalahari.
Fold mountains are formed when two plates under the ground move together which forces sedimentary rock upwards in to a series of folds. ' Hence fold mountains ' There are two types of fold mountain: young fold mountains ( 10-25 millions years of age e.g Rockies and Himalayas ) Old fold mountains (over 200 million years of age, e.g. Urals and Appalachians of the USA). Hope its useful :)
A "Mountain" fold is not actually a special fold of any sort. It simply indicates the direction in which the paper is folded, and is the opposite of a "Valley" fold. Because of this, the nature of the fold depends on how you're looking at the paper. To see an example, take a piece of paper and fold it in half. Now set it down on a flat surface, with the two edges down and the new crease pointing upwards. You're now looking at a mountain fold. Now flip it over, so that the paper is resting on the crease (and perhaps tipping over), and the two sides are pointing upwards. You're now looking at a valley fold.
Fold mountains are usually formed when two tectonic plates carrying continents collide, causing the crust to buckle and fold, resulting in the formation of mountain ranges. The collision forces the rocks to be pushed upwards, forming large mountain belts with distinct fold patterns. Examples of fold mountains include the Himalayas and the Alps.
When two continental plates collide,fold mountains are formed.
The Kilimanjaro Mountain and the Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa.
Fold mountains can be found at convergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates collide and one is forced up over the other, forming long, linear mountain ranges. Examples of fold mountains include the Rockies in North America and the Alps in Europe.
