3 Mountains

4 Mountain building The 3 most common types of mountains are: The 3 most common types of mountains are: 1)Folded mountains 2)Fault-block mountains 3)Volcanic mountains

5 Folded mountains Form when rock layers are squeezed together and pushed upward Form when rock layers are squeezed together and pushed upward

6 Fault-block mountains Form when faulting causes large blocks of the crust to drop down relative to other blocks Form when faulting causes large blocks of the crust to drop down relative to other blocks When the crust is subjected to tension, the rock can break along a series of normal faults When the crust is subjected to tension, the rock can break along a series of normal faults

7 Volcanic mountains Form when molten rock erupts onto the Earth’s surface Form when molten rock erupts onto the Earth’s surface Form from new material being added to the Earth’s surface Form from new material being added to the Earth’s surface
