Question

Which answer choice best describes the difference between folded mountains and fault-block mountains?

Answer 1

The answer is; C

In folding, when segments of Earth's crust are bent and doubled over, the sediments in between are form folds, since they are forced into a smaller space.  This also occurs in converging plates boundaries.

Block Mountains occur when stress due to compression in the crust causes the hanging wall between a fault to move up relative to the footwall.
