Explanation:
The Himalayas is a high mountain system in Asia. It is the highest mountain range on Earth and lies between the Indian subcontinent in the south and the Tibetan highlands in the north. The mountains stretch for a length of about 3000 kilometers from Pakistan to Burma and reach a width of up to 350 kilometers. In the Himalayas are ten of the fourteen highest mountains on earth, the peaks of which are more than 8000 meters high, including Mount Everest, which is 8848 m above sea level being the highest mountain on Earth. With its southern location and the Tibetan highlands rising up in the back of the Himalayas as an extensive high plateau, the Himalayas have a great influence on the climate of South and Southeast Asia.

The 3 major mountain ranges in the United States are the Pacific ranges and Rocky Mountains in the west and the Appalachian mountains in the east. The Pacific ranges are on the northwestern coast of the United States. The Rocky Mountains are in the western United States but east of the Pacific ranges. They extend all the way from Canada into Mexico and cover 8 states. The Appalachian Mountains are near the East Coast of the United States. They extend from Canada to Alabama. The main difference between the eastern mountain ranges and the western mountain ranges is their ages and heights. The Appalachian Mountain range is the oldest range in the United States. Because of this, the range has faced weathering and erosion, which has worn the mountains down. The highest peaks in the Appalachians are only 6,000 feet. The ranges in the west are much younger and in some cases still growing. The mountains in the west are much higher than those in the east, with peaks over 14,000 ft.
