The correct answer is D, the Himalayan Mountains.
Explanation:
The Himalayas is a high mountain system in Asia. It is the highest mountain range on Earth and lies between the Indian subcontinent in the south and the Tibetan highlands in the north. The mountains stretch for a length of about 3000 kilometers from Pakistan to Burma and reach a width of up to 350 kilometers. In the Himalayas are ten of the fourteen highest mountains on earth, the peaks of which are more than 8000 meters high, including Mount Everest, which is 8848 m above sea level being the highest mountain on Earth. With its southern location and the Tibetan highlands rising up in the back of the Himalayas as an extensive high plateau, the Himalayas have a great influence on the climate of South and Southeast Asia.
The mountains have emerged where the tectonic plates meet. The collision of the tectonic plates can disrupt the earth causing earthquakes as well as the growth of a mountain. These mountains take awhile to become the giants they are.
