The correct answer is: C) New mountains are created through tectonic and volcanic activity.

There are three ways in which mountains are formed, therefore there are three different types of mountains: volcanic, fold and block mountains.

It is important to say that these always involve plate tectonics, were huge "compressional forces, isostatic uplift and igneous (magma) matter, forces surface rock upward". In this way a landform higer than the surroundings is created, that is to say: a mountain.

There is no way a mountain is created by one of the other options given.

How long has slavery exsisted
iragen [17]

Answer: It depends on what you mean because slavery is still alive today unfortunately in other countries. I'm assuming you mean African American slavery in the USA. Your answer would be from the 1600s - 1865. But at the same time, not every state started slavery at the same time. For instance, Georgia didn't start until the 1700s so it varies, but the first state was Massachusetts in 1619.
