In general, what are the himalayan mountains composed of: folded and bent rock.
- The geology of the Himalayas is a record of the most dramatic and visible creations of the immense mountain range formed by plate tectonic forces and sculpted by weathering and erosion.
- The Himalayas, which stretch over 2400 km between the Namcha Barwa syntaxis at the eastern end of the mountain range and the Nanga Parbat syntaxis at the western end, are the result of an ongoing orogeny — the collision of the continental crust of two tectonic plates, namely, the Indian Plate thrusting into the Eurasian Plate.
- The Himalaya-Tibet region supplies fresh water for more than one-fifth of the world population, and accounts for a quarter of the global sedimentary budget.

Answer
The correct answer is: metamorphic. Metamorphic rocks are rocks formed from transformation of existing rocks by the influence of pressure, heat or chemically active fluids. Those rocks go through chemical or physical changes-change in form.
Explanation:
I got it right on edge
Wind erosion is the main cause. And since it is the desert that wind can pick up tiny sand rock particles that slowly grind against the rock. Over time the erosion will give a jagged rock the smooth features as if it had been submerged in a river for the roughly same period of time.
