The Himalayas were formed by crumpling of plate edges in a convergent zone.
Mountains are formed by the movements of the tectonic plates and Earth's. Movements deep beneath the Earth's surface cause a variety of reactions, and the results in different types of mountains. Mountains can form as a result of the volcanic activity, the collision of 2 tectonic plates or a movement along a fault line.
hope this helps
The energy stored in rocks as a result of plate movement can be released in an earthquake.
