In general, what are the himalayan mountains composed of: folded and bent rock.

  • The geology of the Himalayas is a record of the most dramatic and visible creations of the immense mountain range formed by plate tectonic forces and sculpted by weathering and erosion.
  • The Himalayas, which stretch over 2400 km between the Namcha Barwa syntaxis at the eastern end of the mountain range and the Nanga Parbat syntaxis at the western end, are the result of an ongoing orogeny — the collision of the continental crust of two tectonic plates, namely, the Indian Plate thrusting into the Eurasian Plate.
  • The Himalaya-Tibet region supplies fresh water for more than one-fifth of the world population, and accounts for a quarter of the global sedimentary budget.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

the Alaska Range and the Brooks Range

Explanation:

Alaska is a federal state in the United States. It is actually the largest state of this country, and it is also the northernmost state. All of Alaska lies on very high latitude, thus it has very cold climate for much of the year.

Big portion of the landscape of Alaska is covered by two mountain ranges. These mountain ranges are the Alaska Range and the Brooks Range. Both ranges have a roughly west to east direction.

The Alaska range is located in the southern and southeastern part of Alaska. It alleviates immediately from the coastline. It separates this part of the country and the lowlands of the interior.

The Brooks Range is located between the central part of the state and the norther part of the state, being a natural boundary between the two parts. This range lifts high up between the lowlands in the interior, and the lowlands in the northern part of the state.
