Answer: b) The Himalayas

Explanation: A collision between the Indo-Australian plate and the Eurosian plate led to the formation of the Himalayas. The present structure was formated by several steps, the first step was the collision of the Gondwana plate and Angara plate where the sea bed rose into longitudinal ridges and valleys, in the second collision step the Tethys bed rose greatly causing the final retreat of sea, forming the Great Himalayas and the Tibetan retreat of the sea. The third step was the formation of the lower Himalayas followed by the fourth step where the Himalayas ranges were elevated and the Sub Himalayas were raised. This last step led to the current structure of the Himalayas.

Explain the idea of ' continental drift'
Anika [276]
, the world was made up of a single continent through most of geologic time. That continent eventually separated and drifted apart, forming into the seven continents we have today. The first comprehensive theory of continental drift was suggested by the German meteorologist Alfred Wegener in 1912. The hypothesis asserts that the continents consist of lighter rocks that rest on heavier crustal material—similar to the manner in which icebergs float on water. Wegener contended that the relative positions of the continents are not rigidly fixed but are slowly moving—at a rate of about one yard per century.
