What are two landforms that are created by a constructive force?

Two landforms created by constructive forces are mountains and volcanic islands. Mountains can form through tectonic processes, such as the collision of tectonic plates, which leads to uplift and the creation of peaks. Volcanic islands are formed by volcanic activity, where lava erupts from the ocean floor and accumulates, eventually rising above sea level to create land. Both landforms illustrate how geological processes can build up new terrain over time.

Are all islands formed by volcanoes in the ocean?

No. Islands may form in a variety of ways. Some are essentially piles of sediment formed by the action of waves and water currents. Some form as a result of seafloor being uplifted by tectonic forces. Other islands form when elevated areas are cut off from the mainland by erosion.
