Landform Formation Eric Angat Teacher

1. How are mountain ranges formed?

Continental crust Continental crust and continental crust convergent Colliding continental crusts form mountain ranges.

2. What are the different types of mountains?

The different types of mountains. 1. Volcanic and dome mountains are formed by magma. 2. Fold mountains are formed when plates collide. 3. Block mountains are formed by faults.

3. How does mantle convection affect Earth’s crust?

Mantle convection happens in the mantle causing the tectonic plates to move and form landforms.

4. What determines the speed at which the tectonic plates are moving?

The convection current in the mantle moves the continents. The weight of subducting tectonic plates hasten the movement of plates

5.What are the two tectonic plates that make up the San Andreas fault?

Pacific plate Pacific Ocean, Los Angeles, Hawaii, Japan North American plate

6. What are the three types of convergent boundaries?

3 Types of Convergent Boundaries 1. Oceanic plate and continental plate 3. Continental plate and continental plate 2. Oceanic plate and Oceanic plate Trench, subduction, volcanoes No Subduction, mountain ranges (Himalayas, Appalachian) Trench, subduction, volcanoes, island arch, mountains

7. What are the three types of plate boundaries?
