collision
by tectonic plates colliding
The Andes Mountains are an example of mountain building activity at a convergent plate boundary, where the South American plate is colliding with the Nazca plate. This collision has led to the uplift and formation of the Andes mountain range.
The South American Plate and the Nazca Plate are colliding, causing the rise of the Andes Mountains through a process known as subduction. The Nazca Plate is being forced beneath the South American Plate, leading to the formation of the mountain range.
