🤔 How it works …….. ⁉
How are mountains created 🌋⛰️
There are three main types of mountains:
Fold mountains, fault-block mountains, and volcanic mountains.
They get their names from how they were formed. Fold mountains – are formed when two plates run into each other or collide. Most mountains formed from Earth’s tectonic plates smashing together. Below the ground, Earth’s crust is made up of multiple tectonic plates.
They’ve been moving around since the beginning of time. And they still move today as a result of geologic activity below the surface. Many of the world’s great mountain ranges are fold mountains including the Andes, Himalayas, and the Rockies.
Fault-block mountains- are formed along faults where some large blocks of rock are forced upwards while others are forced down. The higher area is sometimes called a “horst” and the lower a “graben”.
Volcanic mountains are formed when magma erupts all the way to the surface of the Earth. The magma will harden on the Earth’s surface, forming a mountain.
Movements of tectonic plates create volcanoes along the plate boundaries, which erupt and form mountains. A volcanic arc system is a series of volcanoes that form near a subduction zone where the crust of a sinking oceanic plate melts and drags water down with the subducting crust.
😳Why❓❓❓
Why we use abbreviations i.e., eg & Etc.
i.e is the customary abbreviation for “that is.” It is derived from the Latin term ” id est .”
e.g . is the customary abbreviation for “for example.” It is derived from the Latin phrase ” exempli gratia .”
etc . is the abbreviation for et cetera , a latin expression which is “used at the end of a list to indicate that further, similar items are included”.
