The Andes in western South America is an example of a landform that arises from the movement of the tectonic plates.
The Andes mountain range is the mountain range that runs along South America's whole Pacific Ocean coast in the west. It is the world's longest continental mountain range, stretching 8500 km.
It was created by the convergence of the South American and Nazca plates towards the end of the Late Cretaceous, at the end of the Mesozoic era. In the relief configuration, seismic movements and consequent volcanic activity have been more significant than external erosive processes.
There are high mountain ranges in the existing morphology, as well as broad high plateaus, deep longitudinal valleys, and vast mountain ranges. Except for in the Argentine-Chilean Andes, transversal valleys are uncommon.

When two oceanic plates collide, the younger of the two plates (because it is less dense)* will ride over the edge of the older plate. *(Oceanic plates grow more dense as they cool or move further away from the Mid-Ocean Ridge). The older, heavier plate bends and plunges steeply through the athenosphere, and descending into the earth, ir forms a trench that can be as much as 70 miles wide, more than a thousands miles long, and several miles deep.
Ignore the person above. They’re bots trying to get points. They did the same to me.
Anyways, I’m in the U.S. , I think it’s a wonderful thing but there shouldn’t even be a reason to have this month**. There’s no reason for Women to be oppressed but here we are. Equality would’ve probably made this world a bit better but we’ll never know. All in all, I think it’s amazing and anyone who disagrees is a hater *shrugs* .
