What process is most responsible for building California and mountains?
Plate tectonics can create mountains. Plate Tectonics can also cause earthquakes in California.
The Himalaya mountains were formed in a collision of what boundary?
The Himalaya mountains were formed in a collision of the Indian Plate pushing into the Eurasian Plate, in a convergent boundary known as a continental collision.
What physical process mainly formed the Great Smoky Mountains?
Plate tectonics
How earthquakes volcanoes and mountain's formation are related to plate tectonics?
Earthquakes, volcanoes and mountains are formed via plate tectonics. When the large continental plates collide, they either cause temporary earthquakes, or more permanent features such as volcanoes and mountains.
What features are the result of plate tectonics?
some features caused by plate tectonics would be folded and faulted mountain chains. subduction zones are also some important features caused by plate tectonics. the oceanic crust goes underneath the continental crust creating a subduction zone at the plate boundaries.parvaiz mansoori
Which two tectonic plates collided to create the Himalaya mountains?
The Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate collided to create the Himalaya mountains.
What is the plate boundary of the himalaya mountains?
Convergent Boundary.
Why are mountains lacated where they are?
Mountains are formed when the plate tectonics overlap
What process is most responsible for building California and mountains?

The Himalaya mountains were formed in a collision of what boundary?
The Himalaya mountains were formed in a collision of the Indian Plate pushing into the Eurasian Plate, in a convergent boundary known as a continental collision.
How can non-volcanic mountains be created by plate tectonics?
Plate tectonics create mountains by shifting. They ran into each other and the crashes created solid mountains. Mountains are like wrinkles in the earth.
What is the process when mountains are formed again?
Plate Tectonics.
How long have the Himalaya mountains been in existence?
The Himalaya mountains are estimated to have formed around 50 million years ago as a result of the collision between the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate. This ongoing collision continues to push the Himalayas higher each year.
Samilarties and differences between volvano and plate tectonics?
Volcanos are mountains in which lava comes out and plate tectonics is the theory of plates moving.
What is evidence for plate tectonics?
Coriolis effect.
What the earth would be like with no plate tectonics?
Their would be no mountains.
What types of plates formed the himalaya mountains?
The Himalaya mountains were formed by the collision and continued convergence of the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate. This collision began around 50 million years ago and is ongoing, causing the uplift and formation of the Himalayas.
