Answer:
my guess is because mountains are formed from earthquakes etc right? like convergent boundaries. so the two tectonic plates go towards each other like this -><- and they push each other upwards. over time, since the peaks are so high up, whethering carves the peak into a point.
Answer: Options (1), (3), (4), (6) and (9)
Explanation: Hot-spots are the region of active volcanisms and this could be due to the presence of large mantle plumes, plate tectonic movement, as well as other reasons.
Hot-spots are generated in the following tectonically active boundaries such as-
- Convergence of two oceanic plates.
- Convergence of an oceanic and continental plate.
- Divergence of two oceanic plates.
- Hotspots within the oceanic and continental plate.
The answer for One of the defining aspects of mass extinctions in that natural selection forces do not play a role in the outcome is False
Answer:valley
Explanation:Fold mountains are created where two or more of Earth's tectonic plates are pushed together. At these colliding, compressing boundaries, rocks and debris are warped and folded into rocky outcrops, hills, mountains, and entire mountain ranges. Fold mountains are created through a process called orogeny.
Answer:
Crystal size
Explanation:
The most obvious difference between extrusive rocks and intrusive rocks is crystal size. Because extrusive rocks cool quickly, they only have time to form very small crystals such as basalt or none at all. On the other hand, intrusive rocks grow larger crystals because they take longer to cool.
