Question

(A) The aravallis
(B) The vindhyas
(C) The himalayas
(D) The eastern ghat

Answer 1

Hint - The folding mountains are mountains which are mainly made by two or more tectonic plates when the earth's crust is pushed together. Before developing the plate tectonic theory, or the internal architecture of the thrust belt was well understood, the use of this word was used for most mountain belts, such as the Himalayas is the highest fold mountain in india.

Complete answer: Fold mountains are mountains that are formed mainly by two or more tectonic plates when the earth's crust is pushed together. Either before plate tectonic theory developed, or the internal architecture of the thrust belt became well understood, the term was used for most mountain belts, such as the Himalayas. The term is still fairly common in the physical geography literature, but has generally fallen out of use, except as described below. The forces responsible for the formation of Guna mountains are called orogenic movements. The word orogenic is derived from a Greek word meaning hill building. These forces act on tangents to the surface of the Earth and are mainly a result of plate tectonics.
When two tectonic plates run towards each other at the convergent plate boundary, folded mountains are formed. When the plates and continents on them collide, the accumulated layers of rock can break and disintegrate like a tablecloth, which is pushed across a table, especially if there is a mechanically weak layer such as salt. Such mountains are usually built in length rather than width.
Jura mountain - a series of subparallel mountain ridges formed by folding over a quarterly evaporation dissolution due to vigorous movements in the forests of the Alps.
The 'Simply Folded Belt' of the Zagros Mount - a series of elongated anticinal domes, mostly formed as a troposphere on underlying thrusts in the forests of the Zagros Coliseal Belt, usually above a basal decollement Formed in the evaporation of the neoproterozoic. Cambrian Hormuz Formation.

So option C Is the correct answer.

Note - The Himalayan region is the shape of an arc. The Himalayan region is made up of sedimentary rocks. In the Himalayan region, the average elevation of the mountain peaks is about 6000 meters. It is the northernmost and continuous range. It is covered with snow and has ice glaciers. It is symmetrical in nature and contains granite.
