Answer:

There are several tectonic provinces collectively called as crystalline providences.

Explanation:

  • The geology of Appalachians consists of Blue Ridge, Piedmont, Adirondack, and the New England providences. They are known as Crystalline provinces.
  • The sinking of the oceans continued about 270 million year ago due to which a huge mass of rocks was pushed westwards along the margins of North America and piled up to form the mountains.
  • The Sierra Nevada is the youngest mountain range on the west coast of the United States.

About 70% of Earth's freshwater is where?
Pepsi [2]
About 70% of the Earth's freshwater is found in the form of ice caps and glaciers -it is frozen. Out of this, the majority is actually in one place: covering the continent of Antarctica.

One could argue that there is more water in the oceans, but it's not fresh water- it's salty water, so it's not  good to drink.
