Mountains are formed by slow gigantic movements of the earth's crust.
The earth is made up of six huge plates (a big piece of land). When one plate dashes against another with great force, the land in between the plates gets lifted up to form mountains.
Many of the mountain ranges around the world has been formed due to the collision of two plates against one another.

What is the main geographic feature that distinguishes different types of landforms?
The main geographic feature that distinguishes different types of landforms is elevation, which refers to the height of the land above sea level. Elevation plays a crucial role in shaping landforms such as mountains, plateaus, and plains. The varying elevation levels determine the characteristics and formations of different landforms across regions.

In what ways do landforms divide the region?
Landforms can create physical barriers such as mountains or rivers that make travel or communication between different regions difficult. They can also affect climate, leading to different ecological zones with distinct vegetation and wildlife. Landforms can also influence settlement patterns and economic activities based on factors like soil fertility or natural resources available.
What are landforms measured by?
Landforms are typically measured by characteristics such as elevation, slope, shape, and size. These measurements help geographers and geologists classify and study different types of landforms, such as mountains, valleys, plains, and plateaus. Topographic maps and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are commonly used tools to measure and analyze landforms.
